Hi guys,
this is Ralf (being the reason for starting this discussion) ;-).
Yes, I started to work on the Wiki, not only on the products page, but also
adding how to start setting up a development environment.
As Cemal said, there is a discussion about sort order in the list.
I am ok with providing something sortable, but is it possible in the
Confluence Wiki to add jQery and use it for a table?
If so, would be very interested how to do this.
Quoting Jeremy Thomerson <[email protected]>:
I was thinking the same - just make it a table and use jQuery sortable
plugin.

shouldn't it be one of igor's famous tables with the sort headers?
then we wouldn't need to argue over how to order it.
