Dear all,
 

I need to make a final decision on how far back I should support JAWS. There
are certain practicalities which make supporting a large number of versions
impossible, however, I am aware that the high costs of upgrades does prevent
some users from keeping as up to date as they would like. There is also the
fact that the older versions of JAWS do not support the newer versions of
Windows, and are not 64-bit compliant.

 

I'm proposing to establish a blanket policy of supporting the four most
recent versions (presently 10 - 13).

 

Based on FSI's recent practices, version 14 will be released sometime around
November. My intension is to drop support for version 10 once that version
is supported.

 

I'd welcome your opinions on this, but you'll need to respond quickly
because Sibelius Access 6 will be released soon.

 

I've had several enquiries on the pricing of this version. After a great
deal of careful consideration, I have decided that this is not an
appropriate time to start charging. Sibelius Access is going to be going
through a lot of significant changes over the next year and it would be
unwise to set a price until I know exactly how those changes will affect the
development costs. You are, of  course, welcome to make donations in the
usual way.

 

Many thanks,

 

Dan Rugman
