Hi all, got confirmation from the spec lead that the GeoPackage is indeed invalid, quoting my question about mixing POLYGON and MULTIPOLYGON in the same table:
Andrea, Your instincts are correct here. We're using the simple features rules for geometries and those do not provide a way to classify geometries with a single dimension and unknown multiplicity. In the case you are describing, GEOMETRY should be used. Not doing so violates Requirement 31 <http://www.geopackage.org/spec121/#r31>. Perhaps we can update the text to be more explicit about this.
