Out of personal need, I'm thinking of bringing some kind of sort
functionality into PyOpenCL. I saw that you made a number of
enhancements to your sort code since you sent the announcement. Is your
most recent sort code still in the repo above? What is the license for
that code?  More generally, what course of action would you recommend?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Andreas
