Description czd 2009-05-26 16:28:46 UTC 
Scribus and sK1 support CMYK color palettes.

Problems: 
 1. Rounding problem whit the HEX model.
 2. The HSV model is symmetrical to lightness (white) and darkness (black)
 3. No CMYK color palettes.

Solutions:
 1. HEX and HSL color values.
 2. HSL (or HLS) model (hue, saturation, lightness) [1]
  Example: 1 = 100% = 255, 0.5 = 50% = "127.5" rounded "128". A HSL color picker [2]
 3. CMYK color palettes

Hi! I don't completely understand what this bug report is about. In any case, you should discuss your proposal on the gimp-developer mailing list according to bug reporting guidelines on gimp.org.

Closing as INVALID.
