I don't know DG computers at all, but I see a Nova emulator in Open SIMH so I was
thinking of your work as an extension of that. This is why I asked about updating.
Your answer suggests that you intend to deliver this as an Open SIMH contribution at some
point. That's great news. Not soon because of the complexity of the job, ok,
that's perfectly fine. My question was more about the overall intent rather than
specifics of the timeline.

Nice!
So is this the current open-simh simulator, or a newer version? Will you update the one
in open-simh?

None of the SimH versions currently has an MV emulator, so there is
technically nothing to "update".
This is a new emulator that uses parts of our commercial product stuffed
into the SimH structure. It is a challenge to adapt sections of our
commercial software into the SimH framework due to their significant
differences in design, implementation and certification. Accordingly,
it will take time before source code will be part of a SimH release.
