Talk:Gravitational metric system

article needs to be rewritten
There are several things unclear or wrong in the current introduction. In case nobody feels responsible I would rewrite the entire article based on the German one in the near future.--Debenben (talk) 00:21, 14 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The system uses the force as a base unit, but force is still mass*length/time^2
 * The mass unit hyl depends on the definition of the force unit kp, the same mass has a different value in hyl if the kp is locally different
 * To avoid this, the kp was defined via the Standard gravity gn (n for nominal) in 1901, since then the kp does not depend on the gravity of the earth
