I've added the new Sort library: https://github.com/boostorg/sort

How do I get automated tests running and generating results at: http://www.boost.org/development/tests/master/developer/math.html ?

It must be added to the status/Jamfile.v2

https://github.com/boostorg/boost/tree/master/status https://github.com/boostorg/boost/tree/develop/status

Please create a pull request do to that for develop, but not yet for master. A new library goes in develop first, but only gets added to master when the release managers have reviewed the library and give the OK.

As part of decentralization, should we not change status/Jamfile.v2 to enumerate libs/*/test and libs/*/*/test by itself? There are a few special cases; those can be left in as special cases or fixed. Ideally, adding a library should not involve changes to any central repositories of information. You put it in libs/mylib and everything should just pick it up, as long as it follows the directory structure guidelines and has the necessary metadata.

The sort library has just one tests directory, where you described it (libs/sort/test), and I have no intention of splitting the library into sublibraries from a testing perspective.

Sounds good.. But I will reiterate my suggestion/request. Please stop having sublibs or special cases. All libraries should be just libs/*/test. Anything else just makes everything harder and error prone. I.e. it's more work for everyone.

I've created https://github.com/boostorg/boost/pull/43

I'm not sure if that was the right way to do this, having never done a pull request before. I haven't included the sort library in the boostorg/boost project, on the assumption that boostorg/sort is the correct place to keep it.
