The WMN specification requires message identifiers to be UUIDs conforming to RFC 4122 (section 1.4, https://github.com/wmo-im/wis2-notification-message/blob/main/standard/sections/clause_7_normative_text.adoc) . This RFC has been superseeded by RFC 9562 recently including new UUID variants such as time-ordered UUIDv7.
Changing the requirement to RFC 9562 would allow data providers to use these new UUID versions making the specification more future proof but other introduced UUIDs like Nill UUID and Max UUID should probably excluded to ensure uniqueness.
