What's wrong with the current ordering method (which is by commit count)?

My next PR was going to add some automation to keep this up to date, and I wanted the diff of that PR to be minimal. But now that I know it's by commit count I can just build that ordering into the automation. Thanks for letting me know that's what the order was @Leonabcd123!

hi @norwd, this fiile is generated.

@fehmer, it looks like the updates are applied manually (or at least at arbitrary intervals), would there be interest in having this updated automatically as part of each release? Or at least on some kind of schedule, six months between making a contribution and seeing it on the site seems like a long wait?

I added the script as part of the release pipeline in 83c5ff1, thanks for the suggestion.
