I said I do not know whether color-lab.el "doesn't have much to do with
hexrgb.el" (Lars). I did not say that I do not know anything. I wrote about
what I do know about: hexrgb.el.
What did I mean by "dunno" here? Read what followed "dunno":
d> Dunno. Such a particular color distance computation is I guess

So wrt particular content: it seems _complementary_. But in general, color
difference _is_ the kind of thing that hexrgb.el does. So yes and no - dunno
based only on Lars's general description of color-lab.el.

Complementary.

I already made it clear during the discussion of rainbow-mode.el that such
overlap is to be expected. These are just standard color conversions.

You replied to my mail, but is this directed at me or someone else? I haven't
pointed at any package as something that should not have been done. I haven't
pointed at anyone's work because something is not in Emacs (?). "Really
unfair", indeed.
I simply replied to Yidong's mention of possibly including hexrgb.el (it's OK).
And to Lars's indication that color-lab.el was about calculating a color
distance and that (he thinks) that has little to do with hexrgb.el. I was going
by what Lars described - I have not looked at color-lab.el myself.
Whether color-lab.el _in fact_ has anything to do with hexrgb.el (e.g. same or
similar subject) I dunno. And even if it does, whether the two should be
included separately or merged in some way I dunno. I am not pushing for either
inclusion or merger. I am not pushing and I am not pointing. ;-)
To be clear, I do not really care whether hexrgb.el, color-lab.el, some
combination of them, or both of them are added to Emacs. I tried to reply
technically to the question of what hexrgb.el is about. That's all.
I wrote hexrgb.el for myself and anyone else who wants to use it. I am glad
that someone wrote color-lab.el as well. Heuristically determining readable
colors would be useful - I'm glad you're working on it.
Whether any of this stuff should be added to Emacs is another story, and not for
me to decide.
