Steve,
Thanks for the input and contribution.  As for the vote, all members of 
the TC are eligible to vote here (observers or not), so please proceed.

We did discuss the use of UUID and the xsd:id.  The latter could be 
perceived as an external identifier specific to the parties and their 
interactions.  That does not preclude the creation of a UUID for 
registry purposes. The Reg/Rep team, and the CC/Reg Review subteam, have 
been discussing that both may be important, recognizing that the UUID 
would be assigned by the registry (not the business process itself).

I've cc: Farrukh Najmi and Duane Nickull on this email so they are aware 
of the discussion (as they have been involved in past communication). In 
order for ebBP to support the <documentation>  attribute you specified, 
we would have to establish a variable that could acquire the UUID when 
the process definition is stored
(which is may or may not be).

I'll open the discussion to the team to consider your suggestion and the 
other associated criteria.

Thanks.
