Howdy All,

I had never thoroughly dived into the contents of a GNUBGID but I was a
bit surprised when I didn't see either beaver information or Jacoby. I
was wondering if there is a reason this information is not included? If
there is a reason would someone be kind enough to let me know what they are.

If they should become part of the MatchID portion of a GNUBGID, what are
the ramifications for backwards compatibility by adding more bits to the
end. Will more bits break much older releases if you attempt to paste
new ID's into older versions? I did some test and that didn't seem to be
the case.

I'd be willing make such changes if this was something people felt was a
good idea.
