Hmm ... I found some sources how the colors are defined:
http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=11937
and it looks like LDraw colors http://www.ldraw.org/Article93.html still refer
to a color chart which was defined long before we got our hands on the official
LEGO colors at http://www.peeron.com/inv/colors and are the reason why our
values differ. Question is: Do we still define the colors the way we do because
of compatibility with LDraw 0.27?
Could Joshua's file http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=14408 hop in - taking for
granted that a year is enough time to write it ;-)
As for the PT admins maintaining the color list I guess right now they have
other things to do.
