At the moment, only one sorting order is allowed for all materials, and
fixing that may be quite hard, so I won't spend time on it.
Pages with popcon by votes have been generated on
http://people.debian.org/~barbier/intl/l10n/unstable/
If you prefer this sorting order, I will grab by_vote instead of
by_inst, please have a look and let me know.
