             Summary: UIDs for alert identifier and references
                 Key: EMERGENCY-21
                 URL: https://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/EMERGENCY-21
             Project: OASIS Emergency Management TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: CAP 
            Reporter: Tony Mancuso


Art Botterell;  alert.identifier and alert.references: I'd like to propose for future versions of CAP the TC consider the specification of a Universally Unique Identifier (UUID) as the value of alert.identifier and of entries in alert.references. While this would make the identifiers longer, it would reduce the risk of non-unique identifiers and simplify the construction of references. UUIDs are spec'd in ITU X.667 and IETF RFC 4122.
