              Appeal 2007-0437                                                                       
              Application 09/982,224                                                                 
              remarks in the paragraph bridging pages 22 and 23 of the Answer are well-              
              stated because it was well known in the art that transmission of data between          
              different computer systems utilizing a common server lends itself to the use           
              of this language.  After all, HTML was also well known to be used in the               
              internet as a form of mark-up language to communicate between clients and              
              servers.                                                                               
                    As to the object identifier feature of dependent claim 10, we are                
              satisfied that the Examiner provided sufficient evidence of this capability by         
              our earlier noted reference to the teachings at the top of column 4 of Kumar           
              with respect to its graphical object identifier.  As to claim 11, the teachings        
              identified at columns 3 and 4 of Kumar clearly indicate the ability of his             
              system to operate on 3-D data.                                                         
                    Lastly, the collaboration palette of claim 16 merely broadly provides            
              information relating to collaborators in a collaboration session.  This is             
              clearly depicted in figure 6 and figures 7A, 7B of Brown.                              
                    In view of the foregoing the decision of the Examiner rejecting all              
              claims on appeal under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is affirmed.
