i don't understand why you don't list in the prior art all the documents cited in the search report of the all member of the family patent?
Daniel PorterJean-Louis--if you mean the "known references" in the contest definition, we get these from the references cited in each patent and those known to our client at the start of the search. Members of the same patent family share the same priority date, and so do not constitute prior art for one another.

How will you decide who has won the contest?
Daniel PorterThanks for the question, Josh. We decide winners based on confirmed responses to the contest questions: for this contest the first submitted entry to successfully answer all questions will win the prize.
