G1/21 reasoning is out - restricted to emergencies still but: ViCo is a legitimate Oral Proceeding; not yet as good as in person though, they reckon, so they may lean towards default to in-person but with final discretion with Appeal Board. I think this view will change with time

Good analysis of the current state of play regarding remote hearings at the EuropeanPatentOffice ahead of its verdict on its user survey. Our President Alicia Instone and Honorary Secretary Gwilym Roberts are both quoted, giving reasons why we believe ViCo *IS* the optimal format.

Lots of user positivity about EPO ViCo - good news because we may not have a choice for some time! Enlarged Board’s main reservation was whether ViCo, though acceptable, was good enough - will be interesting to see how this plays out.
