uuid is a python module to generate RFC 4122 compatible UUIDs
Somehow this module was missing in python, so I took over the struggle with the C sources and all those quirky bits and bytes. Most of them should now be in place to form one of these handy 128 bit identifiers. The module is capable of producing time, random, sha1 and md5 based uuids.
