RE: Unique identifier of the Voucher Component

Ko,

Yes, since there have been no comments opposing your view and some support
for it, we won't add an ID attribute in the Voucher Component.

I agree that adding some text on how to generate a unique identifier is a
good idea.

Thanks,
Donald

Donald,

I'm sorry for not proposing the resolution for the issue on 
ID attribute of XML Voucher for a long time:

http://lists.elistx.com/archives/ietf-trade/200206/msg00021.html

After rethinking this issue, I can't see the requirements on 
having the ID attribute WITHIN a Voucher Component although the 
ID generation rule itself might be useful.

So, I would like propose not to introduce the ID attribute, i.e.,
keep the current spec as it is.

Alternately, it may be a good idea to add some description on 
how to generate the identifier of Voucher Component in the VTS-API 
specification (5.8.1 getIdentifier). How do you think?

Thank you

Ko
