I have added:

Why have you done this??? :-(

It looked like we needed a decision.

If there is a strong wish to change this we should do it
soon. What do people say?

I see you have never had a teal part in your hands!

Wrong.

Cyan is NOT teal.

Correct.

Not even close!!! Green is closer!

I think this can be debated, but you could be right.

I already enumerated some teal colours that look good in all rendering
packages, why didn't you choose one?

Colour 3 was one of the suggestions (not from you), so I
_did_ choose one.

And when LEGO creates some cyan parts, what will you do then?

We will use 195 (or some other still undesignated number)
for that purpose.


What we really need to do is not to discuss if one or
another colour number results in a close resemblance to the
actual part, but to find the correct RGB values for LDLite
and L3P, so people can get the right look in their
renderings.


Play well,

Jacob

PS: The RGB value for LDLite can probably be found by
    scanning some instructions with a teal part.
