Resources for the latest Java sorting algorithm

Question

Where can I find information resources ¹ and possibly the source code for this new adaptive merge sorting algorithm mentioned by Joshua Bloch in an interview with Devvox 2008 and referred to as RFE Report too ?

¹ Note. I used my favorite search engine and its largest competitor, without a satisfactory result other than the RFE report.

Answer 1

Googling for "timsort java" gave me this - an OpenJDK7 patch that looks like a Joshua Bloch implementation.

EDIT: Tim (unrelated, I think!) Very kindly determined the URL of the actual Timsort.java from this repository.

Answer 2

IIRC, there has been some discussion of the corresponding OpenJDK mailing list.
