The fact that Endor Labs, Aikido Security, Arnica, Amplify, Jit, Kodem, Legit Security, Mobb, Orca Security, and others — have come together to support Opengrep is a special moment indeed,” Varun Badhwar, CEO of Endor Labs, wrote in a blog post. “And we should address the elephant in the room — we | Jan 29 14:28 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | all benefit from a standardized, open source SAST engine, and we all contribute community rules and improvements for it. But that is exactly the point. The promise of Opengrep means that developers and application security teams will get a better baseline product, no matter who their AppSec vendor of choice is.” </p> | Jan 29 14:28 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | "Patent owner-friendly? I think so. The test whether the reader of the patent monopoly would understand that acts outside the scope of the claim nevertheless infringe is, I read, whether that reader would see the variant as another way to get to the same result as the patented invention delivers. The point of having a patent monopoly system is to stimulate design-around R&D. Why should any rational person finance such activity | Jan 29 16:19 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | if the fruits of that R&D are going to be held by the courts to be infringing acts? Is the UPC serious about promoting technical progress in Europe, or is it more concerned to reward its biggest (and ugliest) user/sponsors?" | Jan 29 16:19 |

| schestowitz[TR2] | "A good question. My experience leads me to suspect that, in reality, the practice outlined in GL B-III, 3.2.3 – 3.2.5 is more honoured in the breach than in the observance.<br /><br />Another interesting question is what will happen with the description of the patent monopoly if, after the EBA's ruling, "gathered sheet" is interpreted without reference to the description and the patent monopoly is maintained based upon | Jan 29 16:20 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | the claims as originally granted.<br /><br />If established case law were followed in that instance, the patent monopoly proprietor would not be required to make any amendments to the description. Indeed, any attempts to make such amendments would be rejected as contrary to R.80 (as explained at GL H-II, 3.1 "amendments are admissible only if they represent a genuine attempt to overcome a ground for opposition").<br /><b | Jan 29 16:20 |
| schestowitz[TR2] | r />Thus, for no reason other than the EPO's current practice on claim interpretation (combined with the EPO's rather lax approach to reviewing the disclosures of the description), upholding the patent monopoly as granted would create an Angora Cat. It is therefore more than a little ironic that the President's justification for upholding current EPO practice is <i>preventing</i> the creation of Angora Cats. Go figure." | Jan 29 16:20 |
