Perhaps they will release it into the public domain. It's a shame that
when software companies are "done" with a product they just mothball
it. For someone, Passage Express was a love and passion when they
designed it, Chances are that it did not return enough revenue to
justify its continued development. In this case the greatest gift that
a software company could do would be to release it in to the Public
Domain. If the product is something that people truly would use someone
will step up and continue development on it, even if it's on a hobby basis.

*Subject:* [LegacyUG] Passage Express
When it first came out it was a third party product. My understanding
though is that those developers no longer wanted to update the program
and a deal was worked out where Millennia got the source code and
authorization to maintain it so in that respect it became a Millennia
product.
I do not know why it was discontinued but I suspect that Millennia did
not have the programmer resources to maintain Passage Express and fix
a number of bugs in the program.
