We've noticed that sometimes sub-categories are not grouped alphabetically on category pages. For example, on this page:

We're not sure, but it seems the problem started occurring after we upgraded from a 1.3.0 beta to 1.3.5. All of the out-of-order sub-categories were created or modified after the upgrade. However I also see it on at least one older page so I'm not sure.
Any ideas on why this may be or how to fix it would be appreciated!
Sort keys for categories used to include the 'Category' namespace, they don't anymore. Edit all affected pages to update the links table for each, or run a query like this to do them all at once:
UPDATE categorylinks SET cl_sortkey=SUBSTRING(cl_sortkey,10) WHERE cl_sortkey LIKE 'Category:%';
Also, I would strongly advise you to upgrade to 1.3.7 as soon as possible, as a number of potential security problems have been fixed.
