| schestowitz[TR2] | people within an organization, not just hire | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | them, according to Jon Lester, the vice president | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | of HR technology, data, and AI at IBM. | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | He told BI that nearly a decade ago, the average | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | IBMer spent 31 hours a year learning new skills. | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | By 2023, that was up to 87 hours. All of this | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | learning, Lester said, assists with retention. It | Oct 21 06:32 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | also sits at the heart of how IBM compensates | Oct 21 06:32 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | "People get salary increases mostly because of | Oct 21 06:32 |

| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | Board of Appeal back-pedals on referral in view of "unequivocal" lack of legal basis for the description amendment requirement (T 56/21) - The IPKat | Oct 21 10:44 | |
| schestowitz[TR2] | "As to the adaptation of the description, very recent developments are to be signaled.<br /><br />The 2024 version of GL F-IV 4.13 has been amended. It now states that the description must be adapted to the claims when inconsistencies cast (present tense) doubt about the meaning of the claims, instead of « could cast doubt » in the previous version. This aligns the condition with PCT Rule 5.29. This amendment is significant and q | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | uite positive for practitioners and examiners as well. It is of note though that the list of amendments of the 2024 GL published by the EPO depicts it as « minor » and does not detail its content.<br /><br />Some colleagues have been quite pleased to find a radical change since April or May 2024 in the practice of examining divisions as to amendments entered at the Rule 71(3) stage. There are no longer substantial and numerous am | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | endments. It is to be confirmed that this true in all technical fields and for all examining divisions.<br /><br />The SQAP 2023 report published by the EPO in June as an annex to the quality report highlights the critical comments of practitioners as to the requirement to adapt the description.<br />This report provides valuable insights as to the quality issues and very interesting read for practitioners.<br /><br />The decision | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | of the Central division – Munich of the UPC Nanostring vs Harvard College, published last week (17 October), dealing with a request for revocation, includes a very significant statement in point 8.6. It holds that the relevant date for claim interpretation in the validity assessment is the filing or priority date of the application. This statement removes the ambiguity of Art 69 as to the meaning of the term « description » (de | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | scription of the application, or of the patent monopoly as granted ?) : the description to be used for claim interpretaton is that of the application. This makes worthless post-filing amendments of the description for claim interpretation and makes irrelevant the major argument raised by the EPO to justify its previous policy.<br /><br />In the case of infringement proceedings including a counter-action for revocation of the patent | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | monopoly in suit, the principe already established by the UPC case is that the interpretation of claims must be the same for infringement and validity assessment, to avoid the « angora cat paradox » as famously called by Lord Justice Jacob. It may thus be assumed, subject to confirmation by the UPC court of appeal, that the same rule will apply to infringement proceedings.<br /><br />As to the application of Art 69 to examinatio | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | n proceedings, decision T 5/21 will obviously raise many comments. Just one remark : I find it curious that it does not mention the principle that during examination, claims must be given their broadest technically sensible interpretation, while it is presented as « well settled » in the case law of the BOAs (I.C.4.1). In addition, it is considered applicable at the stage of search (GLB-III 3.2.5). This same remark can be voiced | Oct 21 10:44 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | about the referring decision T 439/22 for EBA case G 1/24." | Oct 21 10:44 |
