Launchpad itself

Product page should order series by importance, releases in order

Bug #73094 reported by Matthew Paul Thomas on 2006-11-24

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	Launchpad itself	Fix Released	Low	Edwin Grubbs

Bug Description

Currently Launchpad lists series and releases in alphabetical order by version number. Since version numbers are hardly ever alphabetical, this doesn't work.

For example, at the time of writing <https://launchpad.net/products/bzr> orders Bazaar's series and releases as:
* 0.10 series
  - 0.10
  - 0.10rc2
  - 0.10rc1
* 0.11 series
  - 0.11
  - 0.11rc2
  - 0.11rc1
* 0.12 series
  - 0.12
  - 0.12rc1
* 0.9 series
  - 0.9
* bzr.dev series (mainline)

This should be (modulo bug 73093):
* bzr.dev series (mainline)
* 0.12 series
  - 0.12rc1
  - 0.12
* 0.11 series
  - 0.11rc1
  - 0.11rc2
  - 0.11
* 0.10 series
  - 0.10rc1
  - 0.10rc2
  - 0.10
* 0.9 series
  - 0.9

Addressing it for product series. Milestones are a little different.

This sorting problem appears to exist in multiple locations. I spotted it in the Product Timeline:

https://launchpad.net/dosfstools

The order currently shows as:
Releases: 2.9.src, 2.8.src, 2.7.src, 2.6.src, 2.2.src, 2.11.src, 2.10.src, 2.1.src, 2.0.src

Rather than:
Releases: 2.11.src, 2.10.src, 2.9.src, 2.8.src, 2.7.src, 2.6.src, 2.2.src, 2.1.src, 2.0.src

Given that this bug has been marked as fix released, and targets product series rather than releases, it would make more sense to file a new bug.
