I see this pop up from time to time and it looks interesting. Does anyone know if there's actual progress on seeing this get adoption. I don't have any background on how to evaluate or how seriously to take such a draft.... is this draft under serious debate by those that could chose to adopt it or is it just written by someone with high hopes of throwing a draft out there and getting some attention for their idea?

Brad Peabody did the original -00 draft, which was discussed as an FYI at an IEFT meeting in March 2020. See [1], around 50 lines from the bottom. Kyzer Davis has since submitted two further revisions -01 and -02 in April and October 2021. See history in [2]. The current -02 draft is due to expire in April 2022. Presumably Kyzer Davis will try to get it discussed before then. The GitHub repo tracking these drafts is https://github.com/uuid6/uuid6-ietf-draft/ https://github.com/uuid6/uuid6-ietf-draft/.
