If you're pre-pending it with an "s", it won't be flagged by epubcheck but it's technically no longer a valid 128-bit hex value.
Might I suggest that you simply replace the first character of the generated UUID with an a, b, c, d, e or f? |
Good point about the dc id. We could easily replace the first character, I'm just not sure if doing so will still guarantee uniqueness 100% of the time.
My second suggestion may still work--depending on how/where the BookID is generated. Otherwise, it may come down to checking the first character and regenerating a uuid
until one that starts with a valid character is generated. I'm not crazy about that idea.
