He did that work but decided there was not enough $$$ in it to compete with something that might be available for free. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Slau Sent: Friday, August 15, 2008 3:24 PM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: About Sibelius speaking Ah, you see, he had told me that he actually did a bunch of work for version 5 but hadn't completed it.

He had no plans whatsoever for releasing a Sibelius 5 compatible version of anything. As far as I know, he's out of the game.

I must've misunderstood the question. Weren't we talking about Sivelius 5? that's what I meant. ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin <mailto:kevjazz@xxxxxxxxx> Gibbs To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, August 15, 2008 11:30 AM Subject: [ddots-l] Re: About Sibelius speaking He had said that he might make the product operable in Vista. But since there are no more copies of Sib 3 to be had, functionally, it's dead. -----Original Message----- From: ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ddots-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Slau Sent: Friday, August 15, 2008 9:06 AM To: ddots-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [ddots-l] Re: About Sibelius speaking Interestingly, in his reply to me while he was on vacation, he mentioned that he would still consider it. Hmm... maybe he just didn't want to come right out and say he's not going to continue. That, or maybe he was unwilling to type a long e-mail message on a mobile device.
