@ -254,75 +254,6 @@ once [[intrigeri]]'s `meta` branch is merged.
An integration branch, called `meta-po`, merges [[intrigeri]]'s `po`
and `meta` branches, and thus has this additional features.
Language display order
----------------------
Jonas pointed out that one might want to control the order that links to
other languages are listed, for various reasons. Currently, there is no
order, as `po_slave_languages` is a hash. It would need to be converted
to an array to support this. (If twere done, twere best done quickly.)
