[Haskell-cafe] ANNOUNCE: uuid-1.2.6

Hi folks, I'm happy to announce a new point release of the uuid library, 1.2.6: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/uuid-1.2.6 The 'uuid' package implements most of RFC 4122[1] including random generation and generation based on hardware MAC addresses. I haven't announced a point-release in a while. The changes since 1.2.1 include: * When generating UUIDs from the hardware MAC address, if the MAC address is not available we now use a random seed for our (hidden, global) state machine * The 'Read' instance now drops leading spaces * Added the functions 'toWords' and 'fromWords', primary to support the package uuid-quasi[2]. Take care, Antoine 1: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4122 2: http://hackage.haskell.org/package/uuid-quasi
