IDEA doesn’t stand for anything!
How is a decision tree different than a flow chart?
flow chart is almost the reverse of a decision tree
The paper is presented as an introduction to decision tree analysis for lawyers.

Obviously people need to seek counsel if they are making an important decision, but obviously most Creative Commons musicians are not doing that.
Caution non-legal
Using these trees is all well and good, but isn't the valuation of cost and the evaluation of risk still going to be where most of the failure is?

What software do you use?
Free download but no longer there.
You weren't a business major in college, so where did you learn about this?
Doing research for a professor and came across it.
There have been a lot of bad decisions made in the financial world in the last decade and a half. Were those people using decision trees? What are some of the follies of using decision trees?
a tool to help.
Since our audience is most familiar with copyright law, could you briefly discuss the difference between utility patents and design patents? Also, how do those relate to industrial designs?
utility patent goes to 101
design patent is how something looks
design patent is different because does not have to be original in some way
no fair use in design patent
You know the outcome of Samsung v Apple, so doesn't that color your decision tree?
Samsung doesn’t have to file with the SEC
How broken is the patent system? Where do you think it is broken?
Not perfect, but not broken. AIA fixed some problems, but we’ll see how it goes.
AIA addressed some litigation issues and created new administrative courts.
Other things that could be addressed: gene patents, software patents, NPE, patent trolls, PAE (patent assertion entity)
property owners!
When/where can people find the note?
Should be online early fall.
Do you have anything else you'd like to share with the listeners?
It’s going to be an interesting next few years
