Took me a bit longer than expected to be able to read and vote, but just did 
it. Voted +1 on both, plus a tweet to call others to vote

Subject: Re: On algebraic properties of units of measurement



Discussion in "Unit of Measurement API" has shifted on more mathematical
ground, which is a big win. I tried to summarize the agreement that I
want to achieve in this page:

https://github.com/unitsofmeasurement/unit-api/wiki/Arithmetic-operations-on-Quantity

The message I'm fighting for is that whatever JSR-385 do, the arithmetic
operations on quantities (+, -, *, /) must be consistent with arithmetic
laws (associativity, commutativity, etc.). I'm not arguing for any
particular solution - only for the requirement to be compliant with
arithmetic laws. Thankfully yesterday discussion seems to have shifted
to an acceptance of this requirement, but if any one agree, votes (with
a "thumb up") on the following issues are still helpful:

* https://github.com/unitsofmeasurement/unit-api/issues/98
* https://github.com/unitsofmeasurement/unit-api/issues/99

Thanks


    Martin
