Merging those in should resolve everything necessary before the library is
added to master, except for this one which seems to refer to a file that
doesn't exist:
"root/libs/meta/libraries.json is present and contents look reasonable."
I added pull requests for these changes to both develop and master because
it wasn't clear which was appropriate (develop?).
Is there anything else I need to for a release manager to merge the sort
library into master?
Is there a specific release manager I should be talking to?
