dmNews has the following property that is not in dmFacts
<cfproperty name="aObjectIds" type="array" hint="Mixed type children
objects that sit underneath this object" required="no" default="">

and in the PLP has a different handler
  mettadata.cfc Vs catergories.cfm

dmFact uses a component called categories (packages\farcry\)
and saves that values in a table called refCategories

The method getCategories does not have a ORDER BY claues in the SQL

So maybe you could extend the categories comonet and override this
method and add you own sorting.

Or if dmNews does what you are after, modify your extended fact
componet to work in the same way be liberating the categories/metdata
section.
