Characteristics
I just got the info that it is easily spottable if a key is from an agent or not.
My key is 42bae93c-7fbd-4e02-a34e-6ea982e9f92a.
Any agent key seems to have the marked 4 at this place in the key. I'm sure that there are other hints for "object", "notecard", "texture"... Does anyone know? If so, plz add it to the article =)

- Appendix: I just created multiple objects to find similarities. One of these objects had a 4 in the same spot. So I tested multiple agents in the w-hat database but couldn't find any with a different value then 4 in this spot so far. Seems to be: Any agent must has this value, other keys can have this value too. --Zai Lynch(talk|contribs) 22:51, 28 June 2008 (PDT)
- You will find that the "4" in that position indicates that they are using Version 4 of the UUID format as specified in RFC-4122. -- Strife Onizuka 03:27, 29 June 2008 (PDT)
- Kinda late, but not all avatars have a 4 there. Some old stats: http://w-hat.com/keydistribution.txt (notice also the 20th character). -- Masakazu Kojima 23:13, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
