Re: [core] draft-ietf-core-senml-more-units-00

Hi Carsten,

here is the review for the draft.

## General comments

- The Secondary Registry table is probably lacking a description column
  similar to the main SenML registry.

- It looks like "ppm" is not derived from any main SenML unit. As the
  secondary registry is explicity for derived units, shouldn't ppm
  be then in the main SenML registry?   

- There is an open comment on whether the text should update RFC 8428,
  IMO the answer is yes but maybe the authors of both documents and the
  group should decide.

## Editorial

- P4: Says "four", however including the reference there would be five
  columns. 

- P5: "Table 2" is missing the caption.

- P6,P7: Wouldn't the references to IEC and IEEE be informative rather than
  normative?

- P7: IMHO for informational purposes it would help a lot to have references
  to the right locations in BIPM and the IEC, which are referenced themselves in [RS]. 

## Other

- The document indicates that new entries will be added through "Expert
  Review". Often it is the case that little documentation is provided
  when new entries are given to IANA and, since we should avoid
  confusion, I would like to know if we will have specific experts
  versed in the topics of Units to review the entries.

Ciao!
