Hi,

Does anyone know why the uspto is discontinuing the bulk uspc file or why they haven't updated it in over two years? See https://bulkdata.uspto.gov/data/patent/classification/

uspcs are still used on design and plant plants and reissues of either. The patentsview api uses this file so it shouldn't be a surprise that they are missing uspcs for design and plant patents issued after the last bulk uspc file update (the last plant patent in mcfpat.zip is PP29260 and D816289 is the last design patent).

thanks,

Russ
