It is interesting how it all goes through a high and low cycle. The last week Intellectual Property session was definitely a low, partially due to the fact uncovering the valuable information that may affect the startup is buried in pages of legal text. In addition, the requirements on how to properly maintain an inventor book, getting witness signatures, etc. it is so much hassle that ends up eating valuable time. Regardless, sticking to the rules and filing an application may keep one away from a courtroom for some time. And going to a courtroom will definitely put an end to a startup.
The high of the Roadmap session was in the fact, there is no roadmap. Laying down a roadmap is needed for the idea to crystallize. This is it. At is all about protecting and growing the product in a direction that makes sense from users perspective.
