Interwoven’s press release regarding their patent states the following 6 claims (of 13 claims). I have quoted each claim as described in their press release, and then shown how CVS can be used to show prior-art over the claim.

It’s a beautiful, beautiful, summer day. A perfect day for a little ego-surfing. As it turns out, madbean.com made it to Google today. In fact, I got a Googlewhack! (Well, as close to a Googlewhack as I’m ever going to get.)
