Blackboard claims invalidated... again...

Back in August we heard that one of two key claims in Blackboard's patent 138 had been invalidated. Today I saw that e-Literate picked up a blog post from D2L that says the original decision was re-affirmed...

The bottom line: Two judges have now ruled Blackboard's Patent Claims 1-35 are invalid because of indefiniteness of claim 1. Blackboard cannot claim infringement at trial of those claims.

Sounds like good news to me... again.
