  Re: Color Names
 
(...) I do not think anybody would need to "own" anything here (other than Lego). And I do not think any one site should be the leader with this. If the 3 sites chose to work something out then they should all have an equal say. As catalog admin on (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.color, lugnet.lego, FTX)
 
  Re: Color Names
 
(...) All I mean by "own" (and the reason I keep using quotes) is that someone/some group is driving the process. And as I, and I believe Steve and Tim mentioned, the point I was making wasn't that anyone is told what to do, but that there is input (...)

(...) I've been working on such a cross reference myself (see also my recent post in lugnet.general) and at this moment I have a simple excel sheet which list all BL, Peeron and LEGO names and the ones I was able to match, are matched.

  Re: Color Names
 
(...) I don't think I follow your point. LDraw/Peeron are (almost) synchronized in terms of parts. They're somewhat synchronized on colors and try to be.
