Dear Steve et al. We can distinguish udunits-2 as a standard for units strings, and udunits-2 as software. If we say that CF uses udunits-2 as its reference, programs in Fortran can still use udunits-1 to process the units strings, in nearly all cases, though obviously a ununits-2 Fortran interface would be preferable.
To address Andrew's point about "u" for 1e-6 and Nan's about PSU, we could make CF-specific xml files available for use with udunits-2. We decided to do this with udunits.dat, in order to add sverdrup as well as PSU, but didn't get round to it.
