Thanks to Jake and TLC, we just posted an official LEGO color chart, with RGB,
CMYK, and Pantone colors, and a danglish name!
Take a look:

We will be working in the next few weeks with LDraw to associate each of these
colors with our current names.

cool! just for fun, i noticed that Lego # 1, “white” is actually pantone code
“CoolGrey 1 C” and has RGB of 242/243/242, not 255/255/255 of ‘true computer
white’ in paint programs; probably deals with the print or plastic ‘milkiness’
of the color. Also the Lego # 40 “Transparent” is also Pantone “CoolGrey 1 C”,
probably also for print reasons, but from what I’d read about the Pantone
company/colors, I’d have thought their description would be more specific.
Oddly, the RGB value for “Transparent” is 236/236/236; Different from the white
(and darker. probably to convey the ‘look’ of light going thru instead of
reflecting), and more specific than the Pantone description. odd, but fun to
look thru .
