Using the latest quickbook on 'develop' in some documentation I have:

SOMENAME

only to get the quickbook error:

my_file:14: error: Nested blocks in lists won't be supported in quickbook 1.6.

Why am I seeing this ?

Such indentation is going to be used for paragraphs in lists, but I hadn't fully worked out how to do it when I was finishing off 1.6. Previously such indentation would be interpreted as a code block, which is usually not intended. Markup that is usually interpreted incorrectly and would change meaning when upgrading to 1.7 will cause problems in the long run, so it's better to catch it sooner rather than later. If you want paragraphs in lists then you'll need to use an explicit list tag, if you want a code block then you should use an explicit code block (i.e. two backticks at the beginning and end).

Does not a list end when there is a blank list following the last list element ? If not, how does one end a list ?

Should have been: Does not a list end when there is a blank line following the last list element ? If not, how does one end a list ?

I had ended for the line to be a code block. I had assumed my list had ended.

Although I appreciatethe idea of being able to have paragrrpahs in lists I suggest that paragraphs in lists should not override the normal ending of lists.
