Thanks for the response.  Must be a bug in my version:

Python 2.4.2 (#1, Feb 13 2006, 15:24:20)
[GCC 3.3.6 (Gentoo 3.3.6, ssp-3.3.6-1.0, pie-8.7.8)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from docutils.core import publish_parts
>>> t = '''
...
...     1. this is a test
...     #. this is another line
...     #. oh, screw it!
...
... '''
>>> publish_parts ( t, writer_name = 'html' ) [ 'body' ]
u'<blockquote>\n1. this is a test\n#. this is another line\n#. oh, screw
it!</blockquote>\n'

Guess I'll stick to HTML.

Regards,
Cliff
