| schestowitz | Ha! I detect that there is a need to define "quality" in the context of "drafting quality". | Apr 29 00:36 |
| schestowitz | I agree with you that unflinching vigilance to exclude "added matter" is what raises the quality of FTO opinions rendered under the EPC.Indirectly then, it raises drafting quality. | Apr 29 00:36 |
| schestowitz | But if the very purpose, the over-riding objective, of any patent system is to "promote the progress" of technology, then those who husband the system must do their best to render A publications interesting for the person skilled in the art to read, promptly upon publication, for their informational content and inspirational value. The EPO, in making the PSA its established case law, has done its bit. Now it's the turn of the courts | Apr 29 00:36 |

| schestowitz | Thanks for that, Dannish. You prompt me to flag up repercussions for patent drafting, of decisions like Activis and this one from Arnold LJ. The writer of the blog post mentions one consequence. You speak of another one, namely "the breadth of the technical effect" by which I suppose you mean only those technical effects made plausible by the original drafting. | Apr 29 00:38 |
| schestowitz | In that context, I would vigorously assert that one of the biggest benefits of EPO-PSA, as it toggles between technical effects disclosed and technical features claimed, is the huge pressure on drafters to disclose exhaustively all plausible effects, and how they are achieved, by which feature combinations, at which level of generality, already in the priority filing. | Apr 29 00:38 |
| schestowitz | Where would we be, these days, without that pressure on drafters, imposed by EPO-PSA, These past 40 years? I'll tell you. Engineers and scientists would find patent publications not worth reading (like they still do in the USA) because of their obscene lawyerly prose, their proud and deliberate verbosity and their endless deliberate ambiguities and obfuscations. | Apr 29 00:38 |

| schestowitz | MaxDrei, I would argue that the strict view on added matter at the EPO might be more important than the PSA in improving drafting quality. I must admit I prefer the US system where as soon as one shows one is clear of the prior art, one can then relax and draft the claims however one wants, without worrying too much about basis. | Apr 29 00:39 |
| schestowitz | However I also agree that PSA as developed by the EPO remains an incredibly useful tool to assess inventive step, plausibility and sufficiency | Apr 29 00:39 |

| schestowitz | What is appearing quite clear is that the patent profession (examination and assessment of candidates) has failed to adapt to the modern age whereas many other professions have done so through regular testing throughout the year and online/coursework assessments. | Apr 29 00:39 |

Besides CC-0 I often use CC-BY and CC-BY-SA actively, because I know, that I will never sue anyone for formally incorrect usage, except the ones I find “deserving” punishment.

| schestowitz | However, I have become wary of passively using images and texts associated with CC licenses. One of the reasons is, that the license is often somewhere on the page and not embedded in the copy of the work. In those cases, proving anything becomes exceedingly difficult. Unfortunately the CC-HTML offered encourages non-embedded usage of the licenses. | Apr 29 08:20 |

| schestowitz | " | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | The hasty decision of the President of the EPO shows once more that the EPO is run by a bunch of would be managers who do not have the faintest idea about the actual work of an examiner and of a division, be it in in examination or in opposition. They decide as they claim to know best what is good for the EPO, its staff, and its users. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | One thing should not be forgotten, the President might take some decisions, but eventually it will be the Boards of appeal, and even the Enlarged board of appeal, to decide whether the interpretation of the EPC by the president is compatible with the letter and the spirit of the EPC. I take bets that a losing party will raise the problem of oral proceedings in form of videoconferences in first instance before a board. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| -TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-patentblog.kluweriplaw.com | Opposition against EPO plan to hold oral proceedings before examining divisions by videoconference - Kluwer Patent Blog | Apr 29 18:10 | |
| schestowitz | It is sure that the when the EPC was signed that neither Internet nor the digitalisation of our environment were conceivable. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | When the fathers of the EPC thought about oral proceedings, they only had face to face meetings in mind and not meetings in which parties were only present on a screen. After all, the right to be heard is best exemplified by oral proceedings when the parties sit in front the whole division or board. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | OP by videoconference could at a pinch be workable in examination. But one prerequisite is that the division members sit together and not in different locations. That is not what the fathers of the EPC had in mind when they decided upon oral proceedings, even in examination. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | There is a further aspect not to be neglected, not of technical nature but has to do with human psychology. A video conference works best when people have met face to face before. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | Oral proceedings in opposition might be feasible if there is only one opponent. As soon that there is more than one opponent, I fail to see how it can work. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | The necessary public character of oral proceedings in opposition has to be guaranteed. This is by no means the case with the present provisions. | Apr 29 18:10 |
| schestowitz | Simply stating that a member of the public is allowed to come onto the premises of the EPO is not enough. Will a member of the public have access to a videoconference room of the EPO? That a member of the public coming on the premises has to identify himself is acceptable, but no record of any corresponding data should be stored even on a paper form. Unless a court decides differently, any proceedings before a civil or a penal court | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | is open to the public. Beside showing an ID or being refused access if the ranks of the public are full, there is no restriction. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | It should also be possible to access to oral proceedings electronically without previous notice. Through such an arrangement data are necessarily stored somewhere. What happens to this data, when will it be deleted and by whom? | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | All those are questions which are not solved by the president’s decision. The EPO should simply publish a link which allows a member of the public to connect to the videoconference, and all corresponding data should be deleted automatically at the end of the oral proceedings. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | The EPO management regularly claims its immunity, but why should the EPO not be submitted to the EU directive on data protection? | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | It is good to see that for once epi has reacted to measures unilaterally decided by the EPO. I had wished that it would have reacted also when some measures were taken by the previous president of the EPO, for instance the transfer of the boards to Haar. At the time, the silence was astounding. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | It is high time that the users of the system react more to the decisions of the upper management of the EPO. The EPO is a service oriented organisation and it is not with management gobbledygook about sustainability that it will progress and adapt to a new environment. The only sustainability which seems important to the upper management are the bonuses they will cash in. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | In the early years of the EPO, there was one word to qualify EPO’s attitude towards its users: “Anmelderfreundlichkeit”. It helped in the development and acknowledgement of the EPO as being user friendly, and made also its success. The last measures taken in matters of videoconferencing are the right opposite. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | The same can be said about the rush to grant patents as exemplified by a series of publications of Mr Bausch on the present blog. | Apr 29 18:11 |
| schestowitz | I fully support Max Drei’s comments. | Apr 29 18:11 |
