Hi Ira,

I read the draft, and it is interesting. I was wondering about how you thought its publication might affect the use of UUIDs in IPP? Perhaps we ought to discuss this in a future IPP call?

The IESG has approved the following document:
- 'Universally Unique IDentifiers (UUID)'
  (draft-ietf-uuidrev-rfc4122bis-14.txt) as Proposed Standard

This document is the product of the Revise Universally Unique Identifier
Definitions Working Group.

The IESG contact persons are Murray Kucherawy and Francesca Palombini.

Technical Summary

   This specification defines the UUIDs (Universally Unique IDentifiers)
   and the UUID Uniform Resource Name (URN) namespace.  UUIDs are also
   known as GUIDs (Globally Unique IDentifiers).  A UUID is 128 bits
   long and is intended to guarantee uniqueness across space and time.
   UUIDs were originally used in the Apollo Network Computing System and
   later in the Open Software Foundation's (OSF) Distributed Computing
   Environment (DCE), and then in Microsoft Windows platforms.

   This specification is derived from the DCE specification with the
   kind permission of the OSF (now known as The Open Group).
   Information from earlier versions of the DCE specification have been
   incorporated into this document.  This document obsoletes RFC4122.

Working Group Summary

   The document represents a strong concurrence of a many individuals, including
   many from outside the IETF community who maintain running code.

Document Quality

   Yes there are a number of implementators involved, and many have implemented
   the changes.

   The ITU-T and the ISO published documents similiar to RFC4122 at the time,
   but they have not responded to this BIS process.

Personnel

   The Document Shepherd for this document is Michael Richardson. The
   Responsible Area Director is Murray Kucherawy.
