Changing the Impact to medium, as this is affecting our automation results.

I think this is by design. In fact, the old behavior was a bug. English dictionaries do not sort by ASCII values, they sort case-insensitively. NuGet's alphabetical sort should work the same as a dictionary.

We should be sorting with:
  • Invariant Culture
  • Ignore Case
It looks like we are. The "-" comes before the "." in the ASCII chart, so the current results look like they are correct.

Closing as By Design.

Thanks for the commnets, but still have a sight issue oninstalled table, such as package name "AB" with"ABC"
For example as attment "MVC4PackageSort.png" and "MVC4PackageSort2.png".
"DotNetOpenAuth OAuth 1.0(a)" with "DotNetOpenAuth OAuth 1.0(a) Consumer" sort result on "installed package" tab is different with "online serarch result" tab, both under Ascending.
Note this is MVC4 internet project template.

See above comment, still have issue on installed tab

The installed tab does look wrong. Moving to 2.3.

Clearing my name off Assigned so that someone else can pick it up.

This is a minor issue but not trivial to fix. We don't think it warrants a fix.
