Comment 12 for bug 1745597

Hi folks

Thanks for working on this. However, I think it unwise to change the units of the unqualified number in an SRU. That would mean that people who adjusted to "1" (second) as I did would suddenly find themselves at 1ms.

Rather, I suggest:

 * keep the unqualified number as seconds
 * document that very clearly! neither the man page nor the website gets this right
 * also document the ability to specify qualifiers such as ms
 * also document a recommended value (100ms?) and explain the rationale for a higher or lower number

In my case I have seen very bad consequences from wide swings in this setting. Going from 1 per second to 1000 per second will be very poorly received, so I urge you not to push this change into -updates and in fact to pull it from -proposed.
