@yulric, I think we may want to increase the max length to at least 22, since I don't think we can avoid these float representations.

edit: measures.value is also specified as being a string in the schema and a varchar in the parts. An alternative fix may be to make it a float instead.

Lets ask the rest of the team @mathew-thomson. It makes sense to make it a float I think?

Edit: After talking to Doug it looks like this column can have non-number values. So maybe better to make the length bigger.

then we need to wait for the ODM to be updated, and then generate new schemas. I'm deferring this to v0.7.0.
