The ID really just needs to be a unique IRI, which is a variant of the URI. The urn:uuid is one of the ways to generate a unique ID, and it works better for use then the alternatives. The previous version wasn't unique in all cases (multiple blogs on the same host with articles with the same title within a calendar year, IIRC), while this one is a lot easier, *and* it's valid for RSS and Atom, so we can keep the same UIDs no matter which feed we use. > Where is the xmlschema function defined and how can I change the > timezone it > uses?
