So should I just go ahead and make a pull request for the change then? It seems like generally agreed it's an issue, it ought to be fixed, and this doesn't seriously change anything about the way its done; simply clarifying it and making it more consistent for more platforms. I can confirm (using the erl command line) that with the change the md5 sums would match between an OTP 15 series, 17 series, and the java library I have for the piDoc I posted (3.14159) where they didn't before. I also suspect every language in question will have a way to create IEEE 64-bit floats (some obviously more easily than others, but the point is they can). > how about going the extra mile to make _rev generation > easier across platforms? I'm all for it! And I'm up for it but at least with this step we have a solid base to work from.
