[Patentcenter] Letters to OMB and Commerce Inspector General (cc'ed to Vidal)

[Katherine Koenig]

Thank you, David!  We’re so grateful.

I saw this article from IPWatchdog this morning:

“It is embarrassing that the repository for innovation in America can’t figure out basic software and is making the conscious choice to plow forward despite the fact that Patent Center is not ready.” – Gene Quinn

https://ipwatchdog.com/2023/11/05/patent-community-slams-usptos-rush-retire-old-software-systems-despite-patent-center-problems/id=169221/

Identifies the Patent Center Listserv and PTAARMIGAN among those who’ve sent comments.  I’m glad to hear that so many have voiced concerns.  Let’s hope all this makes a difference!

Best regards,

Katherine

As a practical matter, this is probably the last letter on Patent Center -- the deadline for a notice to the Office of the Federal Register is 4:15 or 4:30 Tuesday, and I can't influence anything more that happens before then.
