Trilateral Acceptable Goods ID Manual Update

According to an article in the July/August 2004 issue of Managing Intellectual Property, the USPTO has said that the new Trilateral Acceptable Goods ID Manual will be incorporated into the current U.S. Acceptable Identification of Goods and Services Manual. Designated entries will be accepted in all three offices, while others will be accepted only in the US. The publication delay reportedly stems from the search for an appropriate format and technology to be agreed upon by the trilateral offices. A publication schedule has not yet been determined.
