Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Commented: (OFFICE-3492) Undefined units forConvert Function - NEEDS-DISCUSSION
[ http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3492?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=22819#action_22819 ]
Patrick Durusau commented on OFFICE-3492:
-----------------------------------------
Andreas,
But the fact that measures have been deleted doesn't mean that at one point they existed for measurement purposes.
We make reference to legal definitions because they are widely used (for the most part) and so users know what definition a spreadsheet is using.
That such a measurement is no long "official" doesn't impact a spreadsheet program offering a previously defined measurement.
Yes?

> There are still a number of units that are undefined and cannot be implemented as described. These should all be defined with numbers.
