Is this project using the UCUM system? #197

https://ucum.org/

I'm wondering because the readme doesn't have info about UCUM and this project seems to be an implementation of what the UCUM spec defines. Thanks.

This repository is a specification/API so it does not implement or support the UCUM catalog, that's done in uom-systems/ucum. I will try to transfer this issue to that repository, or close it if that doesn't work. Please create any issue tickets questions or suggestions for new and improved features there, ideally with the "system:ucum" label.

Thanks @keilw where can I find a description of the organization of the repositories and what they contain?

keilw commented 2 years ago

Mostly on the top level readme, but there is also one in the UCUM folder. In addition there is a dedicated top level site www.uom.systems, but it is just a basic description what it does. Note unlike the UCUM bundle of Eclipse UOMo (also based on JSR 363, we're working on a new Indriya based version) this is a statically bound, type-safe approach, so it does not load the ucum-esence.xml at runtime. Also see #173 for the differences between the statically typed library here and others that use and parse ucum-esence.xml.

I trust this answered your question @ppazos, closing this ticket. Feel free to open another one with further questions.
