Comment (by seansaito):

 Hi Karsten,

 Apologies for the late reply. Is there a centralized data store where we
 can keep the UUIDs for each fingerprint? That way only one of the servers
 has to generate the UUID once.

 As for 1), do you think there is a problem with the larger family
 subsuming the smaller family? So the smaller family's UUID would be
 overwritten. For 2), based on my current scheme, there would need to be an
 additional component conducting sanity checks of the UUIDs (i.e. making
 sure no two families have the same UUID).
