Hey, folks: It *is* sorted, by priority. ;)
This is the order the packages will be processed in, so important
packages get processed faster. For the porters, this is a good
thing because you know which package you should focus on
(just work your way from the top of the list).
OTOH, it is very true that we need indices by package name and maintainer.
I will add them, and also split up the page to make browsing through a slow
link more acceptable.

You can set "suspend-on-error" so all packages with build failures will be
suspended. (Maybe useful to set this for some packages, like X).
I will add a feature to include package specific comments to the package web
page, so the admin can add more info on a package (like what long term
change is needed to make it work etc).
I am currently deep into turtle development, so all feature requests are
welcome.
Thanks,
