schestowitzThanks Thorsten for your always enlightening blogs.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzI am looking forward to the next issues.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzOne thing seems however sure, is that all what the EPO and the people at his helm claim to be wonderful is abundantly contradicted by hard facts.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzJust one thing: the differed examination which is thought off, has nothing to do with listening to the users. It has more to do with the fact that in some technical areas filings are going down so that the cupboards will be empty much quicker than expected in view of the tremendous production pressure.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzThe same reason is behind the 5 years contracts for examiners. But this mere thought shows that the people coming up with such ideas do not have the faintest idea of what the examiner work entails.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzThe EPO has been degraded to a play pen for would be managers. In the real world, they would have been fired a long time ago. There is no vision, just manoeuvring in order to show that administration schools are there for something, and if one measure goes to far, then the rudder is thrown to the other side in the hope that it will not end in a catastrophe.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzNothing against waking up the EPO from its sleeping trot, but not in the way it has been done since 2010. Treating people as they have been treated since 2010 is a disgrace. At least it is requested that the AC plays the role it has been set up for, and that the tail stops wagging the dog.Feb 12 00:55
schestowitzImmunity does not mean impunity, and I hope that something will be done, so that at least the ECHR applies to the staff of the EPO.Feb 12 00:55

schestowitzBravo Thorsten. I await with interest and attention, for you to “take the measure” of EPO management.Feb 12 00:56
schestowitzPerhaps it was at the ENA, that trainee mandarins were first taught that you can make an omelette only if, first, you break a few eggs. Or dismiss a few key employees pour encouragez les autres. Of course, like all managements, that at the EPO loves the metrics, can count how many omelettes it churned out last year, with how few employees, and so measure how much more increasingly “efficient” are the services it delivers to the world.Feb 12 00:56
schestowitzBut for EPO management, that’s all that counts, isn’t it? How shall it measure whether the “quality” of its omelettes is rising or falling. What managers can’t measure doesn’t come within their field of “vision”, regardless how many platitudes they churn out, when telling us on their website what is their “mission” in life.Feb 12 00:56
schestowitzIn the end though, Thorsten, it’s only patents, isn’t it? Lifting our eyes and looking outside our professional field, the crisis within the UK National Health Service is much more serious. Patients are dying on trolleys in corridors or in ambulances queuing outside the A&E reception area.Feb 12 00:56
schestowitzNHS managers will be proud to tell you how “all the indicators” show that the Service is much more “efficient”, these days. But efficiency isn’t everything. Even as NHS professional staff and helpers are as dedicated and expert as ever (ever more so, in my experience), the precious goodwill accumulated over more than half a century, that has made the NHS what it is today is being shamelessly (perhaps even deliberately) squandered byFeb 12 00:56
schestowitzthe politicians in charge, in league with their sponsors, the circling corporate vultures, waiting to take everything out of State ownership.Feb 12 00:56
schestowitzThorsten, what do you think? Does anybody of substance out there in the great wide world actually care, whether EPO-produced omelettes are any good? Does anyone care whether any esprit de corps is left at the EPO these days? Or is EPO management just mouthing platitudes?Feb 12 00:56

schestowitz#dst is a terrible idea that should never have been implemented in the first place, unlike leap years. It solves almost no problem at all (solution in search of problems), causes ambiguities (times that exist twice or never at all), people come late for work, technical failures etc.Feb 12 22:49

schestowitz"Feb 12 23:21
schestowitzIt is very easy to understand what the EPO means these days: take any slogan and consider it means exactly the opposite of what is written. For example, the slogan about “Expert, well-supported and motivated staff” while it is clear that the staff is not well trained, has little support and is demotivated. I’ll leave the other bullet points as an exercise to the reader.Feb 12 23:21
schestowitzBTW: the idea that slogans mean exactly the opposite of truth is a feature of all systems where governance is failing and not only in the EPO. It happens in exactly the same way and for the same reasons in all dictatorships and is a central theme in Orwell’s 1984 where “newspeak” calls the Ministry responsible for perpetual war the “Ministry of peace”, etc… It happens when the executive does not need to follow the Rule of LawFeb 12 23:21
schestowitzbecause of lack of check and balances. It is a symptom of a failing governance.Feb 12 23:21
-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-patentblog.kluweriplaw.com | The EPO's Vision and Reality (I) - Kluwer Patent BlogFeb 12 23:21
schestowitzTherefore, the real problem with the EPO is governance. The President of the EPO is outside of all legislative control and has worked the past years to systematically undermine and sabotage whatever checks and balances were in place. The problem will not disappear with a new president, as it is in the system and not in the person.Feb 12 23:21

schestowitzPeter Parker makes a good point: that we ought to compare the EPO with other Patent Offices around the world.Feb 12 23:22
schestowitzLet’s do that then.Feb 12 23:22
schestowitzOther Patent Offices fall under national law. If their CEO’s abuse and ride roughshod over the human rights of employees, they can be held accountable, under the law of the particular jurisdiction in which that Patent Office finds itself. Patent Office managers know this, and it keeps them honest.Feb 12 23:22

schestowitzThanks again to Thorsten for a well-balanced presentation of the staff situation at the EPO.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzI will not come back to the stupid ideas re staff contracts. It just shows that the minds of those devising such measures are anything but sick, and do not have the faintest idea of what the work of an examiner entails.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzWith renewable five years contracts you can be sure that any objection will be nipped in the bud. This was clearly to be seen when the Principal directors where put on 5 years contracts. If directors will also become 5 years contracts, or the “team leaders”, what do you expect?Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzThe problems with joint bodies and the referral to the ILO-AT are inherent to the staff regulations of the EPO which has been devised in the seventies. The question of human rights did not received the same attention then as now. In order to build up the staff regulations for the future staff of the EPO, reference was made to the “coordinated organisations” like ESA, OECD, NATO and the like. Even the salaries were aligned to those of theFeb 15 00:15
schestowitzcoordinated organisations. Progressively the salaries adjustment diverged from those of the coordinated organisations. There is still a link with those as far as pensions are concerned, since the EPO has sublet the pension administration to the SIRP, a special unit of the OECD set up for this purpose.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzUp to the arrival of the Napoleon of the 10th floor, the staff regulations were applied in a more or less reasonable way, and for instance SUEPO was recognised as the prime staff representation; the joint bodies were mainly filled with member of SUEPO and worked more or less correctly. All the predecessors have used their exorbitant power rather cautiously.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzIt should not come as a surprise but quite a few later members of the lower (directors) and upper (principal directors) management where people having exercised some responsibility in the SUEPO before being promoted. One even changed from being violently against the then exercising management to be a stiff antagonist of staff once he became manager.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzThis should not be taken as saying that those members which have been sacked are no good! They have been sacked or demoted as they opposed the ideas sprouting out of the 10th floor. On the other hand a systematic opposition does not bring matters forward either.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzThere have been decisions of former presidents not to follow the conclusions of joint bodies, but they all took care that it would not look arbitrary. Nowadays, for instance the conclusions of the disciplinary committee are systematically set aside, and the proposed sanctions aggravated, sometimes quite drastically. This allows the tenant of the 10th floor to later remove part of his extra sanctions, so that it looks to the not too attentiveFeb 15 00:15
schestowitzobserver that after all it might not be as bad as some people claim.Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzIn order to bring calm into the EPO a first action should be to convene the conference of ministers as set in Art 4a introduced by EPC 2000. That this could only be done with the new president goes without saying. Here again the AC should show more guts. As the conference is to be called at least every five years why was such a conference not scheduled after 2010? EPC 2000 came into force in December 2007 and at the latest in December 2012Feb 15 00:15
schestowitzand 2017 such a conference should have been called. The reply as to why this has not been the case seems obvious.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzAll the mechanisms involving joint bodies should be reviewed. The revision should be such that any unanimous decisions taken by a joint body should be accepted by the president whether he likes it or not. For any other decision, the president should not be empowered to take a decision which will be against the will of the joint body. So even if the joint body would take a decision adverse to the staff member, the president should not beFeb 15 00:16
schestowitzauthorised to aggravate it. Retrograding a staff member should not end up with the staff member being fired, just because the president has a personal gripe.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzIt should also be brought to an end that a joint body is composed by members of the higher management team of the office. They cannot take a view contrary to what they decided in the management committee in a joint body. This farce should come to an end.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzThe ILO-AT has shown that it resumes its role in assessing whether the applicable rules have been formally followed or not. Only in exceptional cases when the rules have not been applied in the spirit in which they have been conceived, the ILO-AT will say something. The ILO-AT is not an appropriate forum for deciding disputes between staff and the organisation they depend from.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzWhy should the role of protecting staff in last resort be carried out by a UN agency?Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzIn general, staff should not be considered as a nuisance or a bunch of lazy people which have to be driven with a whip. You get good performance out of people if you respect them and if you give them objectives which might be challenging but not impossible to reach. When you meet examiners who have not yet fled or cannot flee yet as they are still too young to come near retirement, and they tell you that they are not any longer happy at work,Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzit makes you sad. The brain drain of experienced examiners has been quite drastic. I am not sure that in the long run, it will be to the advantage of the EPO and its users. I rather think the contrary.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzWhat you need are leaders and not administrators at the head of such an office as the EPO. The last tenant of the 10th floor has been a very good example of what can be destroyed by an administrator! And this is sad as well.Feb 15 00:16
schestowitzI have stopped commenting on Peter Parker’s positions. They are sometimes so crude and thoughtless that they do not warrant much attention. They can however be used by the present management of the office to show for instance to the AC that people outside the EPO think that EPO staff are privileged one way or another so that they deserve what they get. Has he ever thought of this? As this is what most members of the AC coming from countriesFeb 15 00:16

schestowitz" It's all about the 'free-market'. Patents mean you take the risks and the rewards. No one else has to fund you for it or be damaged by your risks. It shouldn't be like that because government should be capable of helping individual industries as needed with appropriate incentives. However governments are simply too incompetent to do so. It's not about it being impossible for government to help. It's about them not inclined to bother "Feb 16 15:40

schestowitzSomething I learned on a course at the Civil Service college many years ago is that you can usually find evidence to support any point of view if you look hard enough. A 20th Century example of the impact on industry of both the existence and the absence of patent protection can be found in the electric lamp industry.Feb 16 15:40
schestowitzIn the UK, Edison's master patent was upheld (probably due to a concession by Swan that his earlier patent was not for a filament lamp, leading to the creation of the Edison and Swan joint company to exploit Edison's patent). However, until 1887 all the company's profits were swallowed up in litigation costs, meaning that only the last 6 years of the patent term returned any profits, Ediswan keeping manufacture to themselves. Lamps wereFeb 16 15:40
schestowitzexpensive because Platinum was the only metal then known that would make a reliable vacuum-tight seal to glass, but UK users did get reliable lamps. Unfortunately for Ediswan, oppressive government legislation which would have resulted in effective confiscation of electricity undertakings by local authorities before their owners had been able to recoup their outlay, almost killed the fledgling electricity industry, and the mass market forFeb 16 15:41
schestowitztheir lamps, stone dead.Feb 16 15:41
schestowitzAs Edison's patents were generally not upheld in mainland Europe, a free-for all situation existed, resulting in ruthless cost-cutting that meant that only cheap lamps of poor quality and short life were produced, using metals such as Iron instead of Platinum that soon leaked, and even those could not be made for a profit. As a consequence, the lamp manufacturers got together and formed a cartel whose members agreed minimum prices that wouldFeb 16 15:41
schestowitzallow good quality lamps to be manufactured and sold at a profit.Feb 16 15:41
schestowitzLater, when the Tungsten filament lamp was invented and patented, the British GEC acquired the UK rights and, no doubt mindful of Ediswan's unfortunate experiences with enforcement, made licences freely available, content to rake in the royalties from third parties as well as making lamps themselves. At that time, a patentee could set legally-enforceable prices of products made under a patent, so there was no problem with price-cutting by theFeb 16 15:41
