I just got off the phone with Don Williams, Encore's original developer and owner/developer of SonicScores/Overture—he and I have been in touch for awhile. He has completed the purchase of all code and IP of PassportDesigns and will soon re-launch the passportdesigns.com web site.ericlecardinal wrote: ↑Mon Mar 01, 2021 3:36 am Hi,
Since the release of MacOS 10.15 Catalina on October 9, 2019, which endorsed the permanent abandonment of 32-bit, a message has been sent warning us not to upgrade to Catalina, adding: "We are continuing to develop our products to meet Apple's new operating system. »
Since this day no information is given to us concerning this update.

It appears that Encore is going to be raised from the dead. Plans include 64 bit for Mac/Win, MusicXML 3.0 import/export, multiple undo and possibly a few other features. The immediate goal is to get it working and reading older files so that longtime users can access them and export if desired.
At the moment, I have no other details nor do I have a timeline. I may or may not be affiliated with the new enterprise.
