Hi David (@dholmes-ora),

Sorry for the late reply as I was on vacation last week.

The SIMD sort for Java/OpenJDK is based on Intel's [x86-simd-sort](https://github.com/intel/x86-simd-sort) library. Serge Sans Paille (@serge-sans-paille) was one of the contributors to the x86-simd-sort. That is the reason his name is listed in the copyright notice. 

Thanks,
Vamsi
