Orientierungssatz
The criterion which has to be applied for the assessment of novelty is in principle the same which has to be applied when deciding on the allowability of amendments within the meaning of Article 123(2) EPC, namely as to whether or not the claimed subject-matter is clearly and unambiguously derivable from the prior art and the application as filed, respectively. In the present case, however, the application of this criterion leads to different results regarding the assessment of the amendments of the claims and novelty (Resons point 3.2.3).
