J. Postel, RFC 0881, “The Domain Names Plan and Schedule,”
http://rfe.fh-koeln.de/rfc/html/rfc0881, pages 1-10 (Postel).
Ron Gustavson, “Marketscape’s WebCD Pro Publisher,” Emedia
Professional, December 1997, pages 1-4.
Claims 1, 2 and 4-13 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103(a). As evidence of obviousness the examiner offers
Gustavson in view of Griffin with respect to claims 1, 4-9 and
12, Gustavson in view of Griffin and Postel with respect to claim
13, and Gustavson in view of Griffin and Cook with respect to
claims 2, 10 and 11.
Rather than repeat the arguments of appellants or the
examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answer for the
respective details thereof.
OPINION
We have carefully considered the subject matter on
appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner and the evidence
of obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support for the
rejections. We have, likewise, reviewed and taken into
consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellants’
arguments set forth in the briefs along with the examiner’s
rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in rebuttal
set forth in the examiner’s answer.
