Will there be a P2 software emulator like GEAR?

I was wondering, while reading all those P2 threads on FPGA boards,
if there is somebody thinking or even working on a P2 software emulator.
S.th. similar to the GEAR for Prop 1 ??

something for the 'poor' guys ;-)

and also very useful for single stepping and debugging

    I plan on simulating the P2 in spinsim. The latest public version of spinsim is located in the PropGCC Google code respository. It simulates most of the instructions described in Version 2.0 of the P2 spec, which I believe is from February or March of this year. The P2 mode is enabled with the "-t" option. I've added some very basic single stepping and breakpoint commands a few months ago, but I haven't posted that version. I'm hoping to work on this during the next couple of weeks.
