> I think just the CSS3 official colors should be sufficient. Are the
names the same for the intersection between CSS3 and X11 colors?
Almost. See
[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X11_color_names#Color_names_that_clash_between_X11_and_HTML.2FCSS
this].
> We should also have several lists of colors (like the predefined cmaps
in matplotlib) that go well together, so you can do

Oops! I haven't done this. Which of matplotlib's
[http://www.scipy.org/Cookbook/Matplotlib/Show_colormaps color maps]
should we use?
{{{
#!python
from matplotlib import cm
summer = []
for i in xrange(cm.summer.N):
summer.append(tuple(cm.summer(i)[0:3]))
}}}
`N = 256` for all of them. Should we make our lists the same length?
