Roger,

Since these "globally unique identifiers" are really just URIs, I changed
the document to get rid of the term "globally unique" and just explicitly
state that the object's identifier is a URI. Therefore we are only as
"globally unique" as URIs are and we don't have to say how or why, we let
the URI people worry about that.

AN IBM person reviewing the model document made the following observation --
comments anyone?

On page 20 Section 4.6, it says
"... have an identifier attribute whose value is globally unique
..."
I think we have to say how this is done, don't we?
