Without implementing any hack, can't we put the full name? Or just
remove "J." :)

Remove the extra newline and indentation after `J. Bruce Fields` in

The `J.` sequence was interpreted by sphinx as a letter ordered list
starting at letter `J`. It produced a sub ordered list as item of the
main item list.
<li><ol class="first upperalpha" start="10">
<li>Bruce Fields</li>
</ol>
</li>
The escaping is done before the name and not between the `J` and `.`
to
keep the name writing intact.

Thanks for figuring this out and explaining it so well. This is a sad
ambiguity in the RST syntax, I guess.
In this case, though, I'm not convinced that the cure isn't worse than
the
disease. We've traded a blank line in the HTML output for some ugly
markup in the original text; I'm not sure we want to do that.
For this particular file, perhaps the best solution is just to put the
list of signatures into a literal block. The fix for other occurrences
may be different.
Thanks,
jon
