The IESG contact persons are Murray Kucherawy and Francesca Palombini. A URL of this Internet-Draft is: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-uuidrev-rfc4122bis/ 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. -- Uuidrev mailing list [email protected] https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/uuidrev _______________________________________________ ipp mailing list [email protected] https://www.pwg.org/mailman/listinfo/ipp
