Sibelius to Finale
It would be nice if Sibelius would make it posible for us Finale users to open Sibelius files. Are there plans to make this possible?

There is a partial solution in a program called Dollet, but it really needs to be able to get access to more of the details of Sibelius files before it really becomes useful.
Sibelius is resisting this - it doesn't WANT people to move towards Finale from Sibelius. But because Finale allows access to a greater range of functions for plug-ins, Finale will soon be able to do a number of things Sibelius can't.
It is more likely (though not much more likely as things stand) that Sibelius will move towards a similar opennes for plug-in writers, and then someone will inevitably write a better Sibelius-to-Finale program.
