Hi,
I'm wondering if there were any proposals or discussions on introducing
std::uuid and associated facilities? Currently I'm using Boost.UUID
extensively and it looks like such component could fit into the standard
library nicely.

I don't remember any proposal yet for such library (I havine been reading
proposals publications for only a few years so maybe
an old one exists).
I use boost::uuid so I guess I'm a client too, I just regret that
boost::uuid relies on boost::random instead of using
OS' APIs for implementation.

It's slightly OT here but Boost.UUID does rely on OS to obtain the=20
random seed. It doesn't rely on more specialized interfaces in order not=20
to pull extra dependencies.
Anyway, if there are no existing proposals, I'm considering writing one.=20
Would someone be interested to champion such a proposal, if I wrote one?

I didn't check the last boost.uuid implementations yet but my ticket
mentioned in this discussion wasn't closed so I thought it didn't change:
