At some point, all labels had (still have..) to be marked with US (Imperial?) units followed by the equivalent metric units in parentheses; at some later stage the priority would be reversed and then finally only metric units would be used. I heard the other day that this policy has been discontinued and that labels no longer have to include metric markings. Is any of the above true? Mark E. Mallett
