Thanks to Jake and TLC, we just posted an official LEGO color chart, with RGB,

We will be working in the next few weeks with LDraw to associate each of these
colors with our current names.

:)

(...) cool! just for fun, i noticed that Lego # 1, "white" is actually pantone code "CoolGrey 1 C" and has RGB of 242/243/242, not 255/255/255 of 'true computer white' in paint programs; probably deals with the print or plastic 'milkiness' of the (...)
