Which begs the question of what one means by "root".  There should be a
consistent namespace.  But the question of "authority" for obtaining a
consistent namespace is not a technical issue.

The NIST, for example, defines what is a "liter" in the United States.
Enforcement of weights and measures statutes is in the hands of 50 separate
state agencies.
