Err. what do you mean? We're talking about a CMYK standard, so the inks would be Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black, just like in any other CMYK process. The license will not allow for changing 1) the name of the colour 2) any CMYK value 3) any L*a*b value 4) the name of the ICC profile that's required to faithfully reproduce the colours, unless you remove all references to the company and the name of the standard. This is, after all, the whole point of a standard, namely that anyone receiving data that claim to adhere to a standard can rely on the fact that they actually do. Just imagine what would happen if anyone would be free to modify the ODF specification at will and distribute it as an ODF spec. It would kill ODF - or any other standard. You are free to build your own spec, which may be a derivative of ODF, but you must not call this ODF.
