schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>Normally, I try to avoid Internet drama, so to speak, but something rather interesting caught my eye this week. The OBS Studio maintainers raised an issue with Fedora regarding their use of an unofficial OBS Studio Flatpak package. Naturally, the "incident" created quite a bit of furor in the Linux community. Specific IP issues aside, most people seem to think that Fedora folks are in the Feb 22 10:36

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p> I find this event to be so important that I decided to write an entire article dedicated to it. As it happens, I recently tested Fedora Kinoite, which uses Flatpaks for apps, and I wrote about the many, many problems with multi-source package management in my openSUSE Tumbleweed review. Now, with those in mind, once again, I would like to address the issue of official and unofficial softwFeb 22 10:36

schestowitz[TR2]"That is an interesting thought. Still, I am not persuaded that it is a logical conclusion.<br /><br />Although the description is used to interpret the wording of the claims, the claims remain &quot;<i>not only the starting point, but the decisive basis for determining the protective scope</i>&quot;.<br /><br />Limitations added to the claims during prosecution will have a meaning. That meaning cannot be ignored simply because theFeb 22 18:34
schestowitz[TR2] description might include broader embodiments (which lack the additional limitations).<br /><br />On the other hand, tinkering with the description risks (inadvertently) changing meanings of terms that can be derived from the text of the original description. On balance, it therefore seems far more sensible to just stick with the original description text, which is the approach adopted by most other patent monopoly offices, includFeb 22 18:34
