Implement new UUID versions (V6, V7, V8) #14288

Open philipp-kempgen opened 9 months ago

philipp-kempgen commented 9 months ago

Feature Request

I propose to add support for the new UUID versions (V6, V7, V8, Nil UUID, Max UUID) according to draft-ietf-uuidrev-rfc4122bis-14.

Also see:

UUID v7 in particular seems to be gaining traction for primary keys in database applications.

This document type for this RFC is Active Internet-Draft instead of RFC like from the SPEC that I am use to. Is this spec accepted yet?

It's not an official RFC yet, but implementations are already out there, and changes are probably unlikely. The RFC seems to be in its final stages.
