Dennis Hamilton commented on OFFICE-3411:
-----------------------------------------
So why don't you just use the XML Schema datatype "integer" and let it go at that, with anything else dealt with as part of the implementation-dependency?
> 19.32 config:type: dubious references to SQL specifcation

> double: 18.2

> long: defined by [SQL].

> most of the values here refer to types from the XMLSchema-2 specification, but surprisingly, 2 of then ("short", "long") refer to the SQL specification.
> i'm guessing this is probably wrong.
> XMLSchema-2 also specifies "short" and "long" types, so why not use those.
> furthermore, the type "int" refers to 18.2, but it is not actually listed in 18.2.
> (in ODF 1.1 the values were not described at all.)
