While the need to review the definition for Mass Unit has been in air for several years, I add the following reference to the emerging need for defining mass in terms of its 'atomic definition' worked several years ago. However, my present *diversion has been to perfection of the Calendars & Time reform using HOURS and Arc-angle with 24-hour clock-work - using 834-year/148 Leap Weeks in conjunction with 19-year cycle and T-unit for astronomiocal calculations*.
I add the following:
* Unit of Mass � New Definition: Letters: Indian Standards Bulletin, New Delhi; V26 N3; p.147;
1974 March
* Systeme Internationale d�Unites - Redifined: 15th Indian Standards Convention, Coimbatore; S-6/8; 1973 December 17-22

*****The New Calendar Rhyme*****
Thirty days in July, September:
April, June, November, December;
All the rest have thirty-one; accepting February alone:
Which hath but twenty-nine, to be (in) fine;
Till leap year gives the whole week READY:
Is it not time to MODIFY or change to make it perennial, Oh Daddy!
And make the calendar work with Leap Week Rule! ***** ***** ***** *****

Here is a link to an MSNBC article on the perfect kilogram: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/5189837/
Interesting article (especially toward the end). It seems that we may be closer to defining the kilogram in terms of an atomic standard* sooner than I had thought possible.
Has anyone seen anything else on this subject?

* ... defining the kilogram as the mass of a certain specified number of atoms of some specific element (or more likely, a specific isotope of a specific element), perhaps carbon or silicon.
