> I'm wondering about an importer for the Frink ones... but https://frinklang.org/frinkdata/units.txt doesn't seem to have a license?)

That data is almost all taken from GNU Units, including the descriptions, which means it might be under the GPL. Frink itself doesn't seem to be open source at all?

I wrote a parser and interpreter [1] for the GNU units descriptions a while ago, you can see the parsed json here [2] (kg! are base unit definitions, "micro_" are prefixes)

As far as I can tell there's no license. No thank you, I don't need a legal headache.
