Hi,

This is a call for discussion on RFC 50: OGR field subtypes

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc50_ogr_field_subtype

Below the summary :
"""
This RFC aims at adding the capability of specifying sub-types to OGR fields, 
like boolean, 16 bit integers or 32 bit floating point values. The sub-type of 
a field definition is an additional attribute that specifies a hint or a 
restriction to the main type. The subtype can be used by applications and 
drivers that know how to handle it, and can generally be safely ignored by 
applications and drivers that do not. 
"""
