RE: LCUP Issue: UUID

["Liben, Michael (GTS)" <mliben@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

My vote is to leave it as directory string. I do not see any significant server-side benefit from storing as an octet string. And a directory string is far easier to debug.

Subject: LCUP Issue: UUID


The syntax of UUID is directory string, and moreover, the matching rule
is case ignore match. I see this as overly limiting and suggest that the
syntax be changed to octet string. This is made even more apparent by
the fact that this document leaves standardization of the value
generation to a future specification.
