hi,
are there anyone who could help us on what to do?
(I am unsure on what to make a decision ,exactly).
one of the given options might be suitable for me?
--- >> to consult a patent attorney?
--- >> to read all the relevant content by us?
(We know something about IPs but the scope of copyright is the thing we are too loose)
specific query: I had submitted a patent application. in it, I mentioned some resources for the "Backround of Art" section (but definitely have not referenced anything here)
I also filed a PCT for the relevant application but not sure to proceed further or not. As I still have not paid all the fees , can someone help me on what to do?)
and yes,copyright seems stronger than IP rights. Because it provides 70 years protection or more while IP provides 20 years protection.
