I am glad to report that the PATSTAT Raw Data DVDs "2014 Autumn Edition" is currently shipped. You should receive the DVDs by Dec 15th at the latest. The production of this edition took longer than usual. The reason was that we changed the processing platform and significantly streamlined the production process. In addition, we spent more time testing. As a result, we expect faster processing times in the future.
PATSTAT Online is currently updated with the data of the 2014 Autumn edition. It will be available with the new data asap after testing.
You can access the Data Catalog (which describes the database schema in detail) on DVD or here:
