Claims 1, 5, 8 and 12 through 14 stand rejected under 35
U.S.C. § 103 as being unpatentable over Harada in view of Wang
and DeLozanne while claims 3 and 4 stand correspondingly
rejected over these references and further in view of Nonaka
and Schuhl respectively.
OPINION
We cannot sustain any of the above-noted rejections.
In support of his proposal to modify the Harada process
in a manner so as to result in the here claimed process, the
examiner concludes that it would have been obvious for one
with ordinary skill in the art to select, retain and/or modify
certain process features while ignoring or eliminating other
such features from the Harada, Wang and DeLozanne references.
