Our initial proposal [1] was to use
rightbits(SHA-2(VIN | OEM-specific-256bit Key), 40)
to algorithmically generate the Global-ID of a ULA-Prefix. As long
as the key is kept secret, it would not be reversable or
derivable from the VIN.
Using a global prefix from an RIR is certainly another viable
alternative.
