henke: It is not a reexam of the reexam.

If it was an inter partes reexam, we would know the requester. We will likely never know that for this anonymous, non-participant, ex parte reexam. That is the intention.

Requesters can file the request anonymously. This is done for any number of reasons, but it can be for positive reasons. For instance, a potential licensee wants to have the patent office review concerning prior art before they invest in the patent. The anonymity allows the requester not to worsen an existing situation or tip their hand.

It serves no purpose to guess. It simply does not matter.

And for those that insist nothing is real if they have to search Google themselves, start here: http://goliath.ecnext.com/coms2/gi_0199-3523355/Reexamination-as-a-Limited-Alternative.html

Hmm, alright, that sounded like a definitive statement to me as well. Interesting links that I posted last night, just food for thought then. One possibility. (And that yahoo poster you quoted..still is a fan I see. One word action was missed when I was typing out the info. In any case; Digimarc's breadth of many patents is being challenged in court. IV just paid them $36 million for licensing of said patents. Not the best use of their funds, IMO. PPS I think iHub frowns on reposting things from other message board sites)
