<para>The Romans knew it already 2000 years ago: don't discuss colour nor taste. The discussion about a possible new style for TLDP continues. While author input about their favorite colours is being waved away with the remark that <quote>DocBook enables authors to concentrate on content, they should not worry about formatting and display</quote>, some are concerned about how their documents will look, especially if an <quote>average</quote> colour is chosen. As <ulink url="http://lists.tldp.org/index.cgi?1:mss:6878:200403:apjpihhbjhmiefimbdpl">David Horton suggests</ulink>, the only way out of this thread might well be to concentrate on how a document look in plain black-and-white.</para>
