          "Within the scope of the instantiating Namespace, "
          "InstanceID opaquely and uniquely identifies an instance "
          "of this class. In order to ensure uniqueness within the "
          "NameSpace, the value of InstanceID SHOULD be constructed "
          "using the following \'preferred\' algorithm: \n"
          "<OrgID>:<LocalID> \n"
          "Where <OrgID> and <LocalID> are separated by a colon "
          "\':\', and where <OrgID> MUST include a copyrighted, "
          "trademarked or otherwise unique name that is owned by "
          "the business entity creating/defining the InstanceID, or "
          "is a registered ID that is assigned to the business "
          "entity by a recognized global authority (This is similar "
          "to the <Schema Name>_<Class Name> structure of Schema "
          "class names.) In addition, to ensure uniqueness <OrgID> "
          "MUST NOT contain a colon (\':\'). When using this "
          "algorithm, the first colon to appear in InstanceID MUST "
          "appear between <OrgID> and <LocalID>. \n"
          "<LocalID> is chosen by the business entity and SHOULD "
          "not be re-used to identify different underlying "
          "(real-world) elements. If the above \'preferred\' "
          "algorithm is not used, the defining entity MUST assure "
          "that the resultant InstanceID is not re-used across any "
          "InstanceIDs produced by this or other providers for this "
          "instance\'s NameSpace. \n"
