        them both the same base?

Actually, I think the protocol excessively constrains the UniqueID
field.  As long as the space used by the client is large enough to
make collisions highly unlikely, the UniqueID could be any sequence of
printable ASCII characters up to length 40, say.

Incidentally, the protocol doc makes assertions about the randomness of
UniqueID's.  How random is Java's Random?  Should someone be writing
Yarrow in Java?
