A webpage for what kind of info? Obscure measurements? Metric measurements?
(To some of us Americans, the two are sometimes synonymous :-) ).
There are two files in the COMMERCE section of my files:
measures-art (21K) 1/ 5/98 Definitions of many medieval
measurements
by Marc Carlson (Diarmaid)
measures-msg (74K) 6/ 7/99 Period measures and cautions for recipes.
The first being a bit more organised. The second being just the usual
hodgepodge of collected messages.
If you would like to write another article or maintain a page of
measurement conversions, I would be happy to host it on the Florilegium
site.
Stefan
PS: Par, what does "/UlfR" stand for? Or is Par your regular name and
"UlfR" is your complete persona name? I've wondered for some time...
