If you think you can easily improve on uuid-ossp, > you should go help them. I have no knowledge on the subject one way or the other, that's why I'm asking.. If the answer is "no, there would be no benefit" then that's the answer.. However, it seems like generating UUIDs in Win64 has been broken, perhaps, forever which is why I question if there's a better library to use on the Windows platform (or having a single UUID generator built in for all platforms).. I'd love to help out with Postgres (and several other open source projects), perhaps some day though I'm more of a web/.NET guy..
