1	mongo.bson.buffer.append.list(buf, name, value)

`buf`	(mongo.bson.buffer) The buffer object to which to append.
`name`	(string) The name (key) of the field appended to the buffer.
`value`	(list) The list to append to the buffer as a subobject.

buf <- mongo.bson.buffer.create()
l <- list(fruit = "apple", hasSeeds = TRUE)
mongo.bson.buffer.append.list(buf, "item", l)
b <- mongo.bson.from.buffer(buf)

# this produces a BSON object of the form:
# { "item" : { "fruit" : "apple", "hasSeeds" : true } }
