Opinion
We reverse.
Our opinion is based only on the positions as expressed
by the examiner. We do not undertake to perform examination
de novo based on prior art, even those already of record. Our
reversal of the rejections on appeal should not be construed
as a pronouncement that the claimed invention is patentable
over prior art including the same reference relied on by the
examiner.
The rejection under 35 U.S.C.
