This is to facilitate the unique identification of a particular batch of roster updates. Enables a consumer of this information to keep track of which batches have been applied to its database and which are duplicates. We recommend UUIDs to ensure uniqueness.

This marks the date/time at which this research bundle was formed. It is expressed using ISO 8601 as refined by the World Wide Web Consortium's note http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-datetime. In addition, RIXML requires the use of Zulu time or Z-time (GMT +/- n hours:minute:seconds). All times are absolute and easier to compute, rather than using a relative (i.e. 08:30 +5) time.
