First of all, it takes the view that the ISA should be encouraged to do good job in the first place. Secondly, it is afraid that it would be inundated with SIS requests.Julian Crumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11132318957588277931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-91401575781836702132008-12-19T10:25:00.000+00:002008-12-19T10:25:00.000+00:00This presaging Powerpoint presentation from a few ...This <A HREF="http://www.wipo.int/export/sites/www/pct/en/texts/ppt/2009changes.ppt" REL="nofollow">presaging Powerpoint presentation</A> from a few months back suggests that you shouldn't hold your breath for Japan or the US to join the party.

Waits to be seen whether the EPO will offer any search fee reduction on entry into the European phase - I'm not hopeful.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5574479.post-46498346639571706772008-12-19T09:48:00.000+00:002008-12-19T09:48:00.000+00:00Am not sure Japan and China will be joining the pa...Am not sure Japan and China will be joining the party soon, as I hazard a guess that unearthing prior art in the two languages, more than the other languages, is probably the major reason for the supplementary search.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
