SI Units poll - Who uses SI units in operational software? Experiences

There has always been the claim that checking units of measure (SI aka MKS, or CGS in gaussian or other variant) is important. A web search shows examples for such libraries in many languages. Ada is no exception, examples go back to the 80s as I have shown in my Ada Europe 2003 paper.

There are currently several possibilities I know of: AdaCore’s language extension Gnat User’s Guide chapter 6.5, Dmitry Kazakov’s Units of Measurement for Ada, my SI Units Checked and Unchecked.

So please, if you have ever used such a method (not necessarily one of the above), could you tell us about your experiences?
