>> But 8.3 still does not generate UUIDs, only stores/compares them
This is true, however, only last week I completed a successful pg 8.3
install and during the installation I was able to include UUID
generation functions as an option. I now have 10 functions called
uuid_something. The ones I use most begin with "uuid_generate". I can
call these functions from within my own stored procs.
