Greetings, all.

This announces the start of a second RFC period for the VOUnits recommendation.

The last VOUnits RFC implied a small collection of document and implementation changes which, it turned out, had consequences more far-reaching than was immediately apparent. As well, some new participants appeared in the discussion at this point. The result is a set of document and syntax changes which, it has been decided, are substantial enough to warrant a new RFC.

The editors do not believe these are deep changes in principle, so those WG chairs who were happy with the document in its previous incarnation may not need to examine it too closely this time.

The RFC page is at <http://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/Dec2013VOUnitsRFC>, and the RFC will run from today until 2014 February 4.

Comments should be on the RFC page; discussion should be on the semantics at ivoa.net list.

Thank you for your forthcoming comments!

Best wishes,

Norman
