+      :pullreq: bitbucket:51
+
+      A major improvement to the hash id generation function, which for some
+      reason used an awkward arithmetic formula against uuid4() that produced
+      values that tended to start with the digits 1-4.  Replaced with a
+      simple substring approach which provides an even distribution.  Pull
+      request courtesy Antti Haapala.
