This library is useful for comparing, parsing and
printing Universally Unique Identifiers.
See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UUID> for the general idea.
See <http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122> for the specification.

* Use 'Data.UUID.V4.nextRandom' to generate secure random UUIDs, and your
favorite instance of 'System.Random.Random' for faster but insecure
generation of UUIDs.

* We have an implementation of generating a UUID from the hardware
MAC address and current system time in "Data.UUID.V1".

* For name-based generation of UUIDs using SHA-1 hashing see
"Data.UUID.V5".
