I have considered keeping the soft blue for the links, but here are my
two main reasons for changing to the more "pure" blue:
- The current blue (#3465a4) does not pass the WCAG 1.0 against a
white background. Based on experience, the new blue definitely
increases readability, even though the current "soft blue" might be a
*nicer* color. Since LilyPond's documentation is so extensive, I
think the increase in readability is a plus.
- With the current soft blue, it is difficult to distinguish *links*
from *black text* if link underlining is turned off in the browser.
Since the new blue is more contrasting with the black text in
div#main, this would no longer be an issue.
I want to use the softer blue for something else besides text, but I
haven't yet decided where to put it, thus its absence from this patch.
Thanks for your comments,
-Patrick
