Re: Itemized list item with multiple paras causes toomuch space


/ Richard Sharpe <sharpe@ns.aus.com> was heard to say:
| It seems that with DSSSL, an itemized list that contains a <listitem> where
| the <listitem> has multiple <para> entries will cause too much space
| between that <listitem> and the next.

Looks that way. Sebastian, here's the .tex file and the .dvi that I
get. Suggestions?
