RE: Unique handle generation
Back to requirements... Are there any objections to these, with number 4 amended as suggested by Paul George: [1] Every object MUST have an associated object identifier. [2] Object identifiers MUST be globally unique. [3] An object's identifier MUST NOT change during the lifetime of the object, even if administrative control of the object changes over time. [4] An object identifier MUST contain information that unambiguously identifies both the object and the object's administrative repository at time of creation. [5] Object identifier format SHOULD be easily parsed and understood by humans. <Scott/>
