Okay, this is a concrete example of what I am talking about:

Let's say I'm the guy with this pending patent:

Patenting Pending 20030043194

Method for matchmaking service
"An improved method for matchmaking of a searcher and prospective candidates..."

When I actually use it, do I have to pay royalities to this person:

Patent 5,963,951

Computerized on-line dating service for searching and matching people
"In an on-line dating service, a database of subscriber information is searched to find at least one subscriber matching user search criteria..."

My situation is very similar to the person who has the pending patent, except I have an even better of improving match making services. :) So, would patent pending 20030043194 require licensing of patent 5,963,951?

Again, thanks for your time.

Sincerely,
ktpr
