I spent nearly half an hour in the night trying to get any kind
of list going in the text. Unordererd or ordered list are all showing
up in the page without the bullet mark. I have tried all kinds
of mark-down syntax, putting raw HTML (<ul><li>...</li></ul>),
but the text I want to bullet just shows up as,

"""
Contents
  Important dates
  Permission to record/release presentations

"""

Not good - what is the point in having so much technology
if it cannot render something as silly as a list properly ?

Looks like you have a problem with your stylesheets.
I wanted to put this up today night, but without lists
showing up as lists in the site, I can't go forward
because I am using a lot of bulletted and numbered
lists in the CFP as you can see from the draft.

And I thought moimoin was a pain!

Please someone fix this annoying problem if they
know how to hack stylesheets. I hit my limits with
HTML/CSS etc within half an hour at the most since
I never do this stuff.

HTML source shows <ul>...</ul> correctly but
rendering shows no sign of a list being there.
