@carsten@yarn.zn80.net I like the ideas of Doctorow but I don’t completely agree on this one.

In this case is like if you register a perfume.
Could a Pantone Rose Perfume be created? I guess so, b/c it’s not only a name (which is a brand), but the recipe to reach to that smell. It’s not so fair under the current IP legislation that someone else can use your work and sell the same perfume as theirs. Would it be plagiarism IMO.

Again, it’s polemic, but in this specific case I think people don’t understand what’s behind licensing a Pantone.

I leave a discussion on that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33370265
