True, but removing the whitespace makes it less readable ... originally, we had this kind of naming, but since we added more colors, it became an issue to me - when I've created the palettes for LibreOffice and Inkscape. http://luxate.blogspot.com/2010/10/united-colors-of-liberty.html > To be consistent, we should use "LibreGreen Accent" instead of "Green > Accent" - OpenGrok shows the latter.

As it is the equivalent to "LibreGreen" (as official > LibO color "LibreGreen 1" might be called this way IMHO), I'd call it > "LibreGrey 1". The name "Green 1" has some historic reasons, since - originally - it was the darkest green. The "Green 0" was some mysterious workaround to keep the name, since it already had been used extensively. Thus, the number marks the "intensity" of the color. To provide additional information, I've used the "Comment" section in the spreadsheet table. If you look at the Inkscape palette, hover the "LibreGreen 1" item and Inkscape will show "LibreGreen 1 (LibreOffice Main Color)". So for such kind of information, I propose to keep this kind of naming scheme. > The greyscale logo uses a 50% grey level (#808080), and I'd like to keep it. > > But the darker part of the logo is black only in the basic logo. > We already discussed the black issue several times, so I'd like to see a > "LibreGrey 0" to be used for the dark part of the colored and the > greyscale logo. > > In my eyes 80% grey (#333333) is dark enough to look distinct from the > lighter tone, but is recognized as "not black". > > We could add "LibreGrey 2" and "LibreGrey 3", but I don't think this is > necessary for the LibO palette. Mmh, I got lost a bit ... if I understood it correctly, you discuss the logo instead of the color palette to be included in / translated for LibreOffice. Concerning the former, the black is still fine for the Basic logo for various reasons. Indeed, the Contemporary logo features the different gray shadings (and is the only one as far as I remember). > If we include the basic colors in the palette, more grey values are as > important as the main colors. True, that's what I've suggested - the LibreOffice color palette available in the wiki does feature all these gray values; equally to the Inkscape palette. I'll add the source code at the end of the mail - for easier reference. > > Should this be filed as an > > issue? > > We don't need an issue to decide about the content of the LibO palette. > But we probably will, when our decision will lead to an update on the > color palette inside LibO. That's what I've meant :-) Okay, so I summarize that (personal interpretation of the current state of the discussion): * the LibreOffice color palette should contain all gray shadings (also available in the Inkscape palette) * the color names in the palettes should use "Libre" * for the sake of good readability, I'd like to keep a whitespace between "Libre" and the color name.
