Brian,

So far as I am concenred, the simulator is an integral component in the 
distribution, especially as it has enhanced functionality over the 
previous version. As you say Sun will not include it in their 
distribution, I assume Sun will commit such resources as to maintain a 
separate corporate distibution. In that case, I assume Sun will commit 
such resources to aid in the related development effort.

You should be reminded that Digital did commit a warm body to aid in the 
development of NTPv3.
