Later we decided to use colour 494 (yellow-yellow mix) for
electric contacts. This makes them yellow in instructions
and allows L2P and L3P to colour them chrome in POV-Ray.

I have failed to notice this decision. I was not the only one who did miss
it, since this decision is not processed into the SUDEL.DAT primitive yet.
If someone still has it, can he or she please re-send me the mail regarding
this decision ?

I may have worded it too strongly when I wrote "decided",
but I have appended the relevant messages from L-CAD, so you
can decide for yourself.

Play well,

Jacob

PS: Could everybody please check the colour section in the
    FAQ and tell me what is missing (or wrong).

What if we dither 14 and 14 - what would the colour number be? 494? -
for condoctive areas and let the new rendering programs treat them as
special cases, chrome or so, maybe a little duller, while LDraw keeps
drawing them yellow?

I think this sounds like a very good idea.

That sounds like a very good idea. I have changed the FAQ to reflect
this.
