LOL...I contacted WIPO DIRECTLY instead of listening to baseless speculations a while ago! And, I posted on this board what they said!
Registering at WIPO is for INTERNATIONAL IP protection! NO COUNTRY can touch OWCP IP now. Any country attempt to claim OWCP IP will lose in the court of law! PERIOD! OWCP can wait and file for the patent in ANY COUNTRY ANY TIME THEY WANT! Their IP is PROTECTED INTERNATIONALLY! Rejection claim is bogus and it has been discussed here many times before!
