That's exactly right. I did add the UID property to user profiles for this purpose. However, we are not using it strictly speaking for tracking just yet. There are probably places in the code where we ought to print UserProfile.getUid() to the log file, but that's a future thing that we'll do as it makes sense.

In the meantime we can close this issue, I think.

Andrew, didn't you add the UID in 2.7 trunk just for this purpose? Can this be closed?

No consistent means for maintaining a user's unique identity

               Key: JSPWIKI-267
               URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-267
           Project: JSPWiki
        Issue Type: Bug
        Components: Authentication&Authorization
  Affects Versions: 2.6.2
       Environment: All
          Reporter: Terry Steichen

Now that we've modified JSPWiki to allow users to change not only their Name but also their login name, I don't see any way for JSPWiki administrator to keep track of users over time. For many reasons of administration, billing, user behavior management, I think there should be some way to unambiguously identify a particular user, no matter how often they may change their profile.
