The new SMW version will simplify the numerical datatypes, and this is now effective in SVN (not on ontoworld yet). Here are the changes:
* There is a new "Type:Number" (internal id "_num") * "Type:Float" and "Type:Integer" go away, but they are still aliases in all languages (possibly with their local names) so existing pages will still work as before. * The new "Type:Number" is basically an evolution of Type:Float, so there is no "real" integer type available anymore. This just means that one cannot disallow decimal digits in numbers, and that all numbers can have units. * Units can now be simple links: [[length::300 [[miles]]]]. This feature may need some testing first ... The changes do not make much of a difference in how numbers (integer or not) are handled internally, but you have to run SMW_refreshData.php at least once with argument -p to update the types of your numerical properties. We hope that "Number" is easier to understand than "Float" (I guess normal people really *should* not understand the latter; it is probably even part of the definition of "normal" in this context). Currently broken in SVN (among other things ;): * Support for "(main) display unit" annotations of properties. This will soon work again, but slightly differently (updates follow). * Support for service links of all kinds (including the links to maps). This will also work again at some time.
