I have a specific case in mind, where claim 1 refers to a "Boolean input". On the face of it, this would mean either true or false, 1 or 0. The description, however, makes it clear that this is actually intended to be much [23:17] schestowitz broader, covering any input string. How should an opposition division construe the claim feature? Narrowly (and therefore possibly novel) or broadly (and therefore lacking novelty)?

    Your suggestion to preemptively include in any petition dealing with Vico a request to exclude the chair of the BA from EBA panels must be considered. It could even be generalised so that the chair of the BA is 100 % exempted of acting as a judge and can focus on his/her
    managerial duties. [23:18] -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | BREAKING: In-person proceedings are still the "Gold Standard" - Boards of Appeal start to diverge on ViCo (T 2432/19) - The IPKat
