          Appeal No. 1999-2720                                                        
          Application No. 08/580,965                                                  
          complete copies.                                                            
               Appellant then contends that the Examiner is in error in               
          stating that the combination of Tichy and Ambriola would work               
          because RCS as disclosed by Tichy, and Cedar as disclosed by                
          Ambriola are different stages of development of an integrated               
          version/configuration management system.  Appellant asserts                 
          that RCS and Cedar are entirely two different technical                     
          generations.  As evidence thereof, he points to the Ambriola                
          statement10 "As we                                                          




          will show, these generations corresponding to the use of                    
          different basic methods and technologies for the support of                 
          the activities of configuration management and version                      
          control."  (emphasis added).                                                
               Finally, Appellant argues11 that contrary to the                       
          Examiner's conclusion, the "storeback command" does not                     
          integrate file modifications, but for each modified file it                 
          copies the complete file back to its original location.  He
