LSC has decided to do away with the requirement to transfer dithered color elements to dedicated subfiles. This was required due to a limitation in the original LDRAW.EXE. Due to the belief that James would have eventually fixed this problem and the fact all the current LDraw tools are not affected by this limitation, the LSC feels that this practice is no longer required. What this means is that it is now legal for official parts to have linetypes 2,3,4 and 5 with colors 256-511. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. - The LDraw.org Standards Committee

(...) I'm confused. Is this a change to the current LDraw.org file specifications (which I thought was 0.23) or part of the next LDraw.org file spec (which I thought was going to be 1.0)? The spec published on LDraw.org (URL) is not numbered at all) (...) (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Question: what to do with 'hold' votes based upon the old policy? Good work! Jan Folkersma (20 years ago, 4-Jan-05, to lugnet.cad.dev)
