this was brought up a year ago[1] as a broader issue in OpenStack. 255 bytes for id is weird especially as you mentioned if it's only a uuid. but yeah, Morgan's reply might reflect why you it is a length of 255. the original thread died pretty quickly; it didn't seem like an issue to anyone or needed fixing... if only there was a global council that worked on such technical things :P [1] http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2015-June/068104.html cheers, -- gord __________________________________________________________________________ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
