Godot; Guffman; Bilski: USPTO Postpones Business Methods Meeting

Seems like we're not the only ones waiting for a decision. This morning I received the following e-mail from Jeff Smith, a supervisory examiner in the 3600 TC and coordinator of the annual Business Methods Partnership Meeting:

From: "Smith, Jeffrey A. (AU3625)" Date: June 11, 2010 6:37:36 AM CDT Subject: Notification of Postponement of the 2010 Business Methods Partnership Meeting Greetings, You were recently invited to attend this year's annual Business Method's Partnership Meeting to be held on July 15, 2010.  Regretfully, we must postpone this event.  We recognize and appreciate our community's profound interest in Bilski v. Kappos currently before the United States Supreme Court, and inasmuch as we still await a decision in this case, we find it best to postpone this meeting to a future time when more guidance will be in place for this decision. We apologize for any inconvenience the postponement of this meeting may have caused. We will provide notice to you once we determine the best possible date for the rescheduling of this event. Sincerely, Jeff Smith Supervisory Patent Examiner A.U. 3625 Knox, Rm 5D05

On the positive side, if you were planning on making the trip from out-of-town, you are now spared one dose of D.C. humidity this summer.
