Subject: NEW Issue - WS-Discovery - The UUIDs URIs do not use UUID URN Namespace defined by RFC 4122

Please defer discussions on this issue until a time this issue is accepted and is assigned a number.

Description:

The current specification recommends using a stable unique identifier as a “uuid:” scheme URI for the endpoint address. There is however no definition of the “uuid:” URI scheme. The UUID based URI are expressed as URN as defined in the RFC 4122.

Proposed Resolution:

- Recommend the use of UUID URN as the endpoint address URI. The UUID URN should be constructed as per RFC 4122.

- A reference to RFC 4122 should be added in the references section. This reference should be used in Section 2.6 when providing recommendation for [address] property of Endpoint Reference.

- Various examples in the specification use uuid: URIs message IDs. They should be changed to use UUID URNs.

Attached is the document with change bars.
