"...Bruce Lehman, Patent Office commissioner through much of the 1990s, once
summed up the problem when he said, "We are the patent office, not the
rejection office."
<<much sensible-sounding stuff snipped>>


Wow -- excellent news.

I guess Lehman must not get much campiagn funding from IT or technology 
companies...    8-)

...

As I'm not a WSJ subscriber, so could someone who is tell me if these 
plans will allow "review-before-suit" for patents already granted under 
the old processes?
