@sigprof Thank you for the insights and thoughts. I currently don't find the time to work on this myself.

Thank you for reporting this. We switched to Github Actions in #120 by @rivy and seem to have missed this.

most probably, yes. There might be a few options missing.

I agree, that should be supported. Note that this might result in colors outside of the sRGB gamut though. We need a general strategy on how to handle such scenarios....

@d-dorazio has implemented the major part of this here: #83

I have added a hidden `--print-minimal-distance` option for debugging/inspection. To gain some more insights, I wrote a small Python script which runs `pastel distinct N` (N = 2…13) many times...

We already have CIELAB and LCh (which is basically the same as HCL)

Yes :smile: You can also convert to Lab/LCh via `pastel format`. A lot of internal computations are actually performed in Lab space (like computing perceived color differences).
