Thanks. Just so that I am 100% clear, let me put a scenario in front of everybody. I might have a client building a brand new application using what the specification describes merely as 'the metric system'. I might be then hired to audit a piece of software written by one of their engineers or subcontractors. As part of the audit, I might identify that the software uses a unit from table 9 or 10. Would I be justified in raising a defect report?
