New issue 8 by rich...@flafreeit.com: Field 41 is wrong
http://code.google.com/p/iso8583py/issues/detail?id=8

Looking at the spec for ISO8583, field 41 is incorrect in the ISO8583.py
file where it is limited to 8 ANS chars when the semi official spec on
Wikipedia says it is 16 ANS chars.

This is not a error.

Like you said "semi official spec on Wikipedia", so isn't official.

Because that there is a redefineBit method, so users can define the spec
that read worldwide ...

Please read the doc before post a error.

redefineBit(self, bit, smallStr, largeStr, bitType, size, valueType)
Method that redefine a bit structure in global scope!
Can be used to personalize ISO8583 structure to another specification
(ISO8583 1987 for example!)
Hint: If you have a lot of "ValueToLarge Exception" maybe the
especification that you are using is different of mine. So you will need to
use this method :)
