Subject: [Patentpractice] Assignment Center omits state/prefecture on<br>
recordation cover sheet and on Notice of Recordation<br>
<br>
Knew I should have waited a few weeks to give PTO the chance to work<br>
out the kinks in AssignmentCenter.<br>
<br>
Not sure whether this happens with US domestic addresses or only<br>
with foreign (non-US) addresses, but I have a case where the &quot;patent<br>
assignment draft cover sheet&quot; (a copy of which I fortunately saved for<br>
my records!) correctly showed Japanese prefecture in the &quot;state/country&quot;<br>
field (is screwy that AssignmentCenter now consolidates these two<br>
fields, but let&#39;s set aside that pet peeve for the moment), but the<br>
final cover sheet omits the state/prefecture and only shows country in<br>
field of same name (&quot;state/country&quot;), and most importantly, the<br>
state/prefecture is missing on the Notice of Recordation as well. <br>
<br>
An obvious screwup on the part of AssignmentCenter that will require<br>
much time and expense as foreign-based assignees are forced to submit<br>
requests for correction to the Assignment Recordation Branch.<br>
<br>
To mention a few more pet peeves with the new AssignmentCenter, besides<br>
doing away the useful templates as has been mentioned by others, I also<br>
found ability to download thumbnails (actually full-resolution) before<br>
clicking submit (and thus having an archivably copy not only of what was<br>
uploaded but also of the assignment as rendered into png or whatever by<br>
EPAS) to be extremely useful but if the new AssignmentCenter has<br>
similar ability, I have not yet discovered it.<br>

<br>
I, too, routinely used the ePAS ability to upload a XML document with<br>
assignment details. I built a template document so my docketing<br>
software (AppColl) could generate the XML file. I had to manually make<br>
only minor additions to the XML document, and then upload it to ePAS. I<br>
miss that ability in Ass. Center.<br>

Hi, Carl<br>

I just checked and I can see the previously uploaded assignments and it<br>

Hi Carl - I?m able to get into Assignment Center and it seems to be<br>
working ok. I went in through the Patent pull-down in PatentCenter to<br>
Record Assignment, using Edge, if that?s helpful. Sorry you?re having<br>
trouble with the site.<br>

Be well,<br>

Just now I used the Qualys SSLabs tester to test the access to<br>
<a href="http://assignmentcenter.uspto.gov" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">assignmentcenter.uspto.gov</a>.? I note with great interest that the Qualys<br>
tester carries out its testing in two paths -- Assignment Center<br>
resolves not only to an IPv4 address (151.207.245.82) but also to an<br>
IPv6 address (2610:20:5011:1604:0:0:0:82).? It crosses my mind that the<br>
non-identical results among users might be because some are using IPv6<br>
and others are using IPv4 to reach Assignment Center.<br>
<br>
<br>
The Qualys tests finished just now.? For both paths (the IPv4 and the<br>
IPv6) Qualys gives a grade of &quot;B&quot; for the quality of USPTO&#39;s TLS and<br>
SSL for this domain.? For both paths, the USPTO&#39;s HTTPS stack fails to<br>
provide forward secrecy.? For both paths, the USPTO&#39;s HTTPS stack<br>
offers to negotiate to some very old and weak TLS cipher suites.? And<br>
HTTP simply fails, for the IPv6 stack. (The IPv6 stack is not set up<br>
with HSTS.)<br>
<br>
<br>
(For those keeping score at home, <a href="http://blog.oppedahl.com" rel="noreferrer noreferrer" target="_blank">blog.oppedahl.com</a> gets a grade of &quot;A&quot; <br>
for the TLS and SSL quality.)<br>
<br>
<br>
Aha!? The defect in USPTO&#39;s systems is now clearer.? I turned off IPv6<br>
on the network interface of my notebook computer, and now I have no<br>
difficulty making use of Assignment Center.<br>
<br>
<br>
The USPTO people don&#39;t know how to configure IPv6 correctly for<br>
Assignment Center.<br>
<br>
<br>
Time for a blog article I guess.<br>
<br>
<br>
For those who had difficulty getting Assignment Center to work, the<br>
question I have for you is, do you have your computer set up to do IPv6<br>
as well as IPv4?<br>
