[E-trademarks] Trademark Center is coming soon

[Carl Oppedahl]

Oh and by the way, maybe I missed it, but I do not recall having seen 
even a hint or suggestion of the Commissioner asking the membership of 
our listserv what, if anything, we think is broken in TEAS that needs to 
be fixed in this new TC, nor do I recall having seen even a hint or 
suggestion of the Commissioner asking the membership of our listserv 
what new features, if any, we wished to see added in this new TC.

See 
https://blog.oppedahl.com/commissioner-for-trademarks-responds-to-the-fifty-four-trademark-practitioners/ 
in which Fifty-Four Trademark Practitioners wrote to Commissioner Gooder 
on August 7, 2021 asking for some improvements in TEAS, particularly in 
the area of character-count limitations in various fields.  In October 
of 2021, Commissioner Gooder promised that we would get all of our 
"asks" from that letter.  When the beta version gets released, I am 
confident it will turn out that Commissioner Gooder will have kept that 
promise.
