Appeal 2007-0990 Application 09/871,920 Regarding claims 24 and 43, we find Appellants’ arguments unavailing (Br. 15). As discussed supra with respect to claim 23, once a stage is completed, the item is promoted and the next set of reviewers can review the document. Ivanov teaches the next set of reviewers is notified when the update review process is initiated (col. 9, l. 66 through col. 10, l. 8). We find the reviewers for the next stage are “authors” because they write reviews and are “associated with” the content item since they are reviewing the content item. Regarding claims 26, 27, and 45, we find Appellants’ arguments unavailing (Br. 15-16). We direct Appellants attention to Ivanov at column 18, lines 5-9 of which describes reminding a reviewer if a time period has passed without the update review process being completed. Dependent claims 20-22, 25, 28-31, 41, 42, 44, and 46-49 Responsive to Appellants’ arguments, we reverse the Examiner’s rejection of the following dependent claims as being unpatentable over Ivanov in view of Klibaner: Regarding claim 20, we find Appellants’ arguments persuasive (Br. 13). We note the Examiner has cited only Fig. 1 of Klibaner as allegedly teaching the subject matter of claim 20. However, after reviewing Fig. 1 (Klibaner) and both references relied on by the Examiner, we find Ivanov and Kilbaner fail to teach or reasonably suggest copying the content item to a staging server or copying the content item from the staging server to a production server automatically during automatic synchronization of the staging and production servers, as required by the language of claim 20. 12Page: Previous 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Next
