Re: [CfC] adding 'rebeccapurple' color to CSS Color Level 4

Please note, all, that this is a CfC for the Working Group, not a
general request for responses from the community.  We normally make
decisions of this sort in our weekly telcon, but when something comes
up outside the timeline of that, we use CfCs to asynchronously make a
decision.

The actual list of WG members is somewhat large and confusing, so if
you are not a WG member, please either refrain from commenting in this
thread, or identify yourself clearly as not a member of the WG.
