Those look like ethnic classifications on a census form.

Seriously... Some years ago in looking at the physics of color I was surprised to find a big book of color names published by NBS. At the time I assumed it was specific to physics work and that psychologists, printers, TV techs, and artists had their own standards. Now, I'm not so sure and I suspect there are cross-domain standards. I think there are some web standards for color names.

I like the idea of the use of standards in Revolution. I think more features that almost meet standards should be enhanced and those that do should have the extent of compliance documented. This simplifies documentation for Rev and apps made with Rev. It also lowers the psychological cost of learning to use Rev.
