I haven’t reviewed this topic enough to form an opinion one way or another (as to how it would benefit/harm MY clients)…yet. However, if you’d like to learn more:
The United States Patent & Trademark Office [USPTO] invites you to participate in a special web announcement on Thursday, November 2nd at 2 p.m. Eastern / 11 a.m. Pacific on the USPTO's revised Accelerated Examination [AE] program.
