          Appeal No. 2003-1569                                                        
          Application No. 09/783,466                                                  

          the artisan that the appellants had possession at that time of              
          the subject matter recited in the appealed claims.                          
               Accordingly, we shall not sustain the standing 35 U.S.C.               
          § 112, first paragraph, rejection of claims 1, 2 and 5 through              
          11.                                                                         
               Finally, it is noted that on page 12 in the main brief the             
          appellants appear to raise as an issue in this appeal the 35                
          U.S.C. § 132 objection set forth in the final rejection.  To the            
          extent that this objection is inconsistent with our decision on             
          the merits of the foregoing rejection of claims 1, 2 and 5                  
          through 11, it should be withdrawn by the examiner.
