Peer to Patent: Invitation to Participate on Peer to Patent Developer Mailing List

The Community Patent Review project team will initiate discussions of technical system architecture in the next couple weeks. Anyone interested in this topic is invited to participate. The focus of the
conversation will be technical in nature and will occur on the p2patent-developer mailing list. The initial topic will be establishing a candidate technical architecture that supports the project specification (use cases).

Details

We are looking for input and suggestions on our technical specifications via a group discussion on the developer mailing list. Participants are asked to review the project technical documentation and to share ideas for how each of our use cases should be implemented. For example, what application frameworks should be used, and what technical standards should be observed, or what solutions may already exist.

Each person could determine which use cases are of most interest. For example some contributors may want to focus on prior art, searching, or visualization techniques. So the time spent could be as little as a few minutes to a couple hours.

All interaction would be via the developer mailing list so there is no need for meetings or teleconferences. The timeframe is now through December 1. The discussion may continue longer but this is the window in which many key decisions will be made.
