We have started the WGLC today.
It goes until June 9th.  The document is still open for comments,
particularly of an editorial nature.
Did something confuse you? our fault, let us know.

We included a way to do SHA-2 based uuids into the v8 namespace based uuids,
which we think is future proof, and won't burn version numbers the way that
MD5 and SHA1 derived uuids did.
