I can do it by name, IRC nick or language (language being my preferred one), ... Can we ask what purpose the ordering is expected to serve? In techie-speak, are there any use cases defined for this database? :) To me, language seems a slightly odd choice of primary sort key, especially since it is primary language only (some of us speak more than one)... and as long as I can communicate about with someone about Lubuntu in some language that we both know, I don't care all that much what their primary language is... I just want to communicate with them. Timezone info is on Launchpad anyway, assuming people set it (!), so it is currently just a click away from the WhoAreWe list. Do we need to duplicate that info on the wiki, and then update it in two places as we move around the world? Is the benefit worth the cost? Ordering by seniority or date added as it is now (longest-serving members at the top, new people add themselves to the end of the list) also has some value, as that is information which would be lost (well, except by laboriously looking back through wiki history) if the list were re-ordered at all. If we re-order, should a date-added column be introduced so that info is not accidentally lost? SUMMARY: This seems like a bike-shedding kind of a topic :) However, since you asked, I'd suggest order by date added -- in other words, leave it as it is. But I'm interested in hearing about use cases which are helped by a different ordering. I fail to see any reason to sort the list at all and nobody, so far, has given a reason. -- Steve Cook (Yorvyk) http://lubuntu.net ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop Post to : lubuntu-desktop@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~lubuntu-desktop More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
