I've recently uploaded unitsdef.tgz to ftp.dante.de/incoming. This package is distributed under the conditions of the lppl.
I suggest to move it to
CTAN:/macros/latex/contrib/unitsdef/
The file provides the new package »unitsdef«. This is taken from the abstract:
There are a lot of packages for typesetting units in LaTeX2e. Some define macros to typeset a lot of units but do not suit to the actual font settings, some make the characters needed available but do not predefine any unit. This package tries to comply with both requirements. It predefines common units, defines an easy to use interface to define new units and changes the output concerning to the surrounding font settings.
Thanks for your upload. I installed the package as requested in:
macros/latex/contrib/unitsdef
