Headnote
After amendment of the claims leading in essence to a version discussed at a previous stage of the procedure, nothing stands in the way of a decision being taken based on the objections and facts previously discussed, even if the decision is taken in an oral proceedings held in the absence of the appellant and the amendment was filed in response to the summons to said oral proceedings (Reasons 1.2 and 2).

In the present case, an alternative solution for a problem already solved is not in itself inventive (Reasons 4 pages 12 to 14).
