I write the driver for Wetternetz Sachsen, and I have to upload some 
temperature differences there. 

And I wonder what is the *intended way* to convert those differences from 
one unit to another.

The template for a restful service driver says that I have to put code to 
read or calculate additional values into the "get_record" function, where 
the archive unit system is used. The conversion to the target unit system I 
have to put into the "format_url" function. 

Temperatures and temperature differences are converted in a different way 
because of the offset between the units.

But I found no "group_temperaturediff" or "group_temperaturerate" unit 
group, that could cover that. 

Because I did not know I put the code to read the start and end temperature 
of the given interval into the "get_record" function. No difference is 
calculated there. In "format_url" function first the data record is 
converted into the target unit system and then the temperature difference 
is calculated. 

Shall I do so or is there a better way?
