FYI - Below are comments that I provided this afternoon regarding the Design Search Code Manual. Some of the DSCM comments may look familiar, particularly if you followed my discussions of the UNKNOWN[DD] search phenomenon on the recently retired TESS. Sadly,
I don't expect the typical Trademark Search System user would notice if their trademark search was impacted by any of these inconsistencies unless their design code search failed to retrieve any trademarks.</div>
