The pex sample implemention is being done by Sun Microsystems and is being
funded by a consortium of sponsors. Sun began work on the sample
implementation just over a year ago and is funded for a two year development
effort. The sponsoring companies has access to pre-releases of the work in
progress as part of their reward for funding the development effort. Pex will
not be distributed by MIT until the development is finished, right now it
appears as if this will be 1st quarter 1991.
