>I would like to bring to your attention the Business Plan of ISO
>Technical Committee 12, "Quantities and Units". ISO/TC 12 works closely
>with IEC/TC 25, "Quantities and Units". Jointly, they produce the
>ISO/IEC 80000 series standard.

>What I find to be particularly interesting in this ISO/TC 12 Business
>Plan is the economic analysis that it contains. Some of you may find
>material here that will be useful to you in your efforts to lobby for
>full metrication of the U.S. The document is in PDF format and it is
>only 7 pages long.

>A copy is attached. The document also may be viewed online at
