Hi,
The "only" directive is not a preprocessor. Actually, it works as
post-processor.
In your situation, the input reST is recognized like following:
<ul>
<li>New glunkifier for fribulating text.
<li>(eight more entries here)
<li>Zoodler has been enhanced.
</ul>
<only condition="versionA">
<ul>
<li>Numbulator now handles XQT48.
</ul>
</only>
<only condition="versionB">
<ul>
<li>Numbulator now handles XQT49.
</ul>
</only>
<ul>
<li>Framulator is .005% faster.
</ul>
So your list is splitted to 4 lists by "only" directive.
I think the directive is not good to this case.
It seems using other preprocessor is good for your case.
Thanks,
Takeshi KOMIYA
