Yes, it is. There is a new UPF format which is quite different (the  
description is currently sitting in my hard disk), but fhi2upf converts to  
the one described on the web page.

I see you point, but I don't know of any such description. You may be  
luckier on the abinit web site, although a quick google search didn't find  
anything for me.
