(...) I apologize for dreaming out loud. For a sec I've forgotten that we are a conservative community - at least some of us. (...)

(...) As it happens, the LSC has been dealing with this very issue for the past few months. There is no mention made of dither colors in any of the current LDraw specs (including the official parts restrictions). They somehow got dropped (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

(...) I was about to write the same thing, but you beat me. I think it's a great idea! I can think of two potential problems: 1. Programs that create seams between parts but not models. (Are there any more than L3P?) Depending on how they are (...) (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)

(...) I think eliminating part-specific subfiles would be a nice file-management benefit, if nothing else. I expect that reducing the number of part-specific subfiles would speed up the part-approval process, always a good thing. The most important (...)

Even so I was in the assumption that I didn't create any special colors, but I toulk them over from some old spec where these colors where mentioned. I (...)

(...) Err, what? No, don't mix color codes and RGBs in official parts! This isn't an issue of backwards compatibility. It's an issue of adding complexity where it isn't needed (IMO, of course). (...) Ha! I'd have to get it back from Chris... Steve (15 years ago, 10-Feb-10, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts)
