I don't think the new article on Examination Support Document should be added to the patent reform act of 2007 since ESDs will be required in the US in certain cases as of Nov 1, 2007, irrespective of whether or not the patent reform act is passed. --Nowa 20:25, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, indeed. I have removed the tag. Cheers, --Edcolins 21:13, 17 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Opposition

It is appropriate to put in informative content about those that oppose or support the bill, but not outright politicizing.--Nowa (talk) 01:27, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Advocacy

I appreciate the reference to the article by Jongshun Cheng, but unless I am mistaken, he is no longer a member of the Chinese government and it is not clear that he is actively lobbying Congress either for or against the bill. I will put in called "International Reaction" which should cover notable editorials world wide.--Nowa (talk) 20:08, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Opposition

I combined Opposition with Advocacy. A number of the reference links in Opposition didn't work. If references can be provided, then the lobbying efforts of the indicated organizations can be added in.--Nowa (talk) 20:48, 20 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

RV Soap Box

Recent edits have attempted to use this page as a soap box. I appreciate the effort put into these edits and have attempted to remove the POV while preserving the encyclopedic content. Nonetheless, the soap box content has been readded. Editors providing said content are encouraged to review Wikipedia:NPOV tutorial.--Nowa (talk) 17:27, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Patent Reform Act of 2005

Patent Reform Act of 2005 (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) is on the prior incarnation of this act, and is much more detailed (being a couple years older). I'm not up on the finer points and distinctions between the 2005 and 2007 Acts, but perhaps someone well-versed in both would like to copy some of the material to this article, to the extent that it is applicable.

I should point out that I just updated the article on the 2005 Act to indicate that it did not get enacted, and to use past-tense throughout, so the best copy to crib from would be prior to those changes. TJRC (talk) 00:10, 4 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
