[gdal-dev] Call for discusson on RFC 31 - OGR 64bit Integer Fields and FIDs

[Even Rouault]

If people need more time to review, tell me otherwise I'll call for a vote on 
it tomorrow.

> Hi,
> 
> This is a call for discussion on revisiting the existing RFC 31 - OGR 64bit
> Integer Fields and FIDs, initiated by Frank in 2010 and that I've extended.
> 
> http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/rfc31_ogr_64
> 
> Below the summary :
> """
> This RFC addresses steps to upgrade OGR to support 64bit integer fields and
> feature ids. Many feature data formats support wide integers, and the
> inability to transform these through OGR causes increasing numbers of
> problems.
> """
> 
> A first discussion took place at http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/gdal-
> dev/2010-November/thread.html#26883. My main remarks at that time were
> about compatibility issues, but as this would go in GDAL 2.0, they are
> likely less critical.
