Robert Lazarski resolved AXIS2-5881.
------------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

Fixed on trunk, shipping in 2.0.1. Services are now sorted alphabetically (case-insensitive) on
  the listing page, and operations within each service are also sorted by name.

  Following Andreas's recommendation from February 2025, the sorting is done in
  ListingAgent.processListServices() using a TreeMap with String.CASE_INSENSITIVE_ORDER, and passed
   to the JSP as a sortedServices request attribute — keeping Java logic out of the JSP. The
  operations are sorted into a temporary ArrayList per service. A defensive
  ConcurrentModificationException catch handles the edge case of concurrent hot deployment during
  listing.

  Tested locally on WildFly 32 with 5 deployed services — confirmed sorted output in the browser.

  Thanks to [~JWT007] for the original patch and idea back in 2017, and to [~veithen] for
  the design guidance that shaped the final implementation.

> One thing that has always bothered me about the "services/listServices.jsp" was that it is not sorted ... which means scrolling around looking for the service and/or operations.
> In our build I have updated the listServices.jsp with a few changes to sort the output of services and operations... would just like to suggest the fix be incorporated in the build. (see attachment).  Primarily I replaced the HashMaps with ConcurrentSkipListMap to naturally sort by the keys (ServiceName, OperationName)
