<p>Well, folks, the USPTO finally did fix this defect, which I had
predicted back on January 29. See <a

<i><b>Blocks you from including an application number that they
can't find in their system. </b></i>It looks like if your
patent application is not in Patentcenter, you will be blocked
from including it in your recordation submission. I suspect
this means it will be impossible to record against a PCT
application filed in an Office that is not the RO/US.<br>
