Joel said this was a requirement: One of the important criteria I had was that these IDs should be easily memorable. Unfortunately UUIDs are not memorable, being too long to remember.
A primary key that appears in a URL is just an implementation detail - the implementation could change, and still display the equivalent behavior to a user. But when I person has to remember a value, that value is no longer an implementation detail. Again, just my opinion; but that crosses the line. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
