I'm probably confused -- but where is the description of how UUIDs are 
assigned?  Note that this can be security-critical; this document 
suggests that UUIDs are public, but can be used in security contexts.  
Used how?  Are access rights determined by UUID?  What if the UUID is 
reassigned?  At the least, these issues need clarifying.  (Note: the 
document appears to cite [ISO11578] as the normative reference for 
UUIDs.  I'm willing to believe that, but the title does not lead one to 
suspect that that is indeed the case.  Again, clarifying text would 
help.)

Note: we are also working on draft-mealling-uuid-urn, which does not refer to the same base spec for UUIDs. Is there something to be said for cross-IETF consistency on UUIDs?
