[E-trademarks] [EXT] Re: Not everyone is unhappy with the new TESS

[Alex Butterman]

Did everyone see the attached article? I tried to send this to the list last week but it apparently never got posted. It is from WTR and the original may have been paywalled, but my office made this pdf copy for internal purposes and I’d like to think this is just fair use between colleagues helping each other out.

It is a PTO response to our criticism of the new search software and I don’t know why the PTO would or should respond only through trade press that puts this behind a paywall.
