orgmode, referring to an item in a numbered list

Question

I need to refer to the number of an item in a numbered list. For example:

1. Something 
2. See item (1)
3. Something else

Orgmode lets me create hyperlinks, but these are useless in a printed document, so I need to refer to the actual number of the item. I'm not picky about how it's presented (1), <1>, 1., etc. are all fine for my needs.

Answer 1

There is an example in the OrgMode manual using internal links.

The following document:

1. <<first>>Something
2. See item [[first]]
3. Something else

Will export as:

1. Something
2. See item 1
3. Something else
