                is (understandably) focused on strengthening the

                its customers.  This reception is intended to be
                strikingly different, with a focus on collegiality and
                professionalism among the members of the listserv
                community, and an emphasis on good relationships with
                Offices such as the USPTO and WIPO.

                to solve problems faced by listserv members, and
                offering mentorship and support to newcomers to the
