[Athen] Blackboard patent update

[Kelmer, Susan M.]

As much as I hate Blackboard, I don't think this is going to be the last
of the patent.  The first rejection of a patent is usually because
certain questions weren't answered and there are holes in their
explanations and research.  A lot of patents are rejected on first
submission.  Blackboard will certainly file their updates on time and
the patent may still be issued.  These things often take years to
resolve.
