| schestowitz | A post-grant correction is only possible under R 139 or R 140 and G 1/10. However both are not applicable in the present situation | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | For R 139, there is no error in a document filed with the EPO. For R 140 and G 1/10, there is no reason to correct the text of the patent. In G 1/10, the EBA insisted on the fact that after having approved the text intended for grant, the applicant bears the full responsibility for any error which has not been spotted at the moment he gives his approval. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-ipkitten.blogspot.com | When is the “text-intended for grant” not intended for grant? (T 1003/19) - The IPKat | Oct 17 02:50 | |
| schestowitz | T 1003/19 is not the only decision in this respect. There is also T 2081/16. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | The important lesson to be kept is that checking the documents received with a communication under R 71(3) is a duty of the applicant/representative which should not be taken lightly. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | I refer to Point 5.5 of the reasons: | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | - 5.5 The fact that a narrow interpretation of Rule 71(3) and (5) EPC as proposed by this board and by the board in decision T 2081/16 (see section 2.4. above) allows for an appeal to be treated as admissible should not be misinterpreted as an invitation to neglect the applicant's duty to carefully check both the communication and the "Druckexemplar" sent to it under Rule 71(3) EPC. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | In both T 1003/19 and T 2081/16, the applicant realised immediately after the actual grant that something went wrong, and filed an appeal. The BA could also have decided that the appeal is not admissible, as there has been approval by the applicant. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | Once the patent has been granted, the possibility of filing a divisional application has gone, cf. R 36(1). | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | A limitation under Art 105a means clearly a limitation, but not the substitution of faulty documents for the correct ones. This possibility might thus only be working in exceptional circumstances, but cannot be a standard cure for any error which has not been spotted when receiving the communication under R 71(3). | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | If the applicant realises much later that there is a mistake in the documents annexed to the communication under R 71(3), he is stuck, and has to live with a patent which is in the form approved by him, even if it does not correspond to any of the requests he has filed. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | Sending out the communication and mentioning some so-called “minor amendments” is a trick often employed by examiners in order to” twist the arm” of the applicant. By luring him into grant, he hopes to get read of the file and earn the points for the final action. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | In T 2346/15, the examiner in charge amended the independent claims in order for them to be clear, cf. comment **Art 84 in the communication under R 71(3), end of sheet 1, beginning of sheet 2. The amendments introduced were offending Art 123(2), but grant was decided. | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | That the wrong documents may be quoted in the communication under R 71(3) has certainly to do with the haste in which the examiner in charge has to gain his “points”, but it also shows that three member divisions only exist on the paper, as the checking of the documents proposed to grant is the main duty of the second examiner of the examining division. For that work, and the work of chairman of an examining division, no points are | Oct 17 02:50 |
| schestowitz | awarded. | Oct 17 02:50 |

| schestowitz | im fond of saying that every word (in natural language) is an identifier. that it derives all of its meaning from other words, like a function definition. | Oct 17 07:22 |
| schestowitz | so imo (fwiw) the proper interpretation of kuhn saying crisis three times is “he likes that word.” but the meaning of that word as hes using it? dont assume-- find out. he doesnt necessarily mean it the way you think. and this isnt intended to paint kuhn as being unreasonable for this trait, i dont think its a surprising quirk for someone who hangs around people that parse legalise all day. | Oct 17 07:22 |

| schestowitz | maybe you read too much into kuhn repeating a word. this is a guy that falls in love with certain words, i consider him to be the honourary inventor (he isnt really) of the word “problematic.” hes certainly its #1 fan. | Oct 17 09:07 |
| schestowitz | im fond of saying that every word (in natural language) is an identifier. that it derives all of its meaning from other words, like a function definition. | Oct 17 09:07 |
| schestowitz | so imo (fwiw) the proper interpretation of kuhn saying crisis three times is “he likes that word.” but the meaning of that word as hes using it? dont assume-- find out. he doesnt necessarily mean it the way you think. and this isnt intended to paint kuhn as being unreasonable for this trait, i dont think its a surprising quirk for someone who hangs around people that parse legalise all day. | Oct 17 09:07 |

| schestowitz | Sending to the AC a heavily biased financial study, is also not fostering trust in the administration.

| schestowitz | we (not you, but many of us) want mozilla to just fail already. wishing for mozilla to change is like wishing for hillary to not be corrupt. | Oct 17 19:58 |
| schestowitz | the sooner mozilla is over, the closer we are to free software being a success again. really, every new version that comes out makes the free software ecosystem worse. | Oct 17 19:58 |
| schestowitz | a lot of the people (including myself) who dont want the fsf to fail still want mozilla to. theyre unsalvageable. the browser isnt-- the mozilla foundation is. though we could do A LOT better for a browser. and we wait patiently for horrible YEAR after horrible year. mozilla is the u.s. democratic party of browsers. its only holding real progress back, and giving us an endless supply of crap. | Oct 17 19:58 |

| schestowitz | time to run updates on your evaluation. theyve spent years being “awful.” their only real “merit” now is layering gimmicks on top of something that continues to fester and get worse. theyre so far past the point of fixing. and this couldnt have happened unless the organisation was already useless. | Oct 17 19:58 |
