Official color palette of IBM design system for Inkscape and GIMP. I've taken these values and colors from [IBM Design Language](https://www.ibm.com/design/language/color)

Marking as private for the time being.
I'm actually looking to pull everything that IBM Design language has to offer from proprietary softwares to inkscape and GIMP.
Are you sure this is okay for IBM - to make palettes from their brand colors? Is this the same as https://www.figma.com/community/file/1089055766693968230/ibm-color-library (which is licenced CC-By-SA, not GPL) or is this IBM's brand colors only? (or are those identical, even?)
Please make sure to use the correct license, and to only use materials that are meant for public consumption, and not just for their own internal use.
Also please make sure to include any required registered trademark signs, if required. Have you investigated?
Please put this back into the 'palettes' category only if you are sure you have addressed the mentioned points correctly.
Hi Maren, Thanks for the catch, I've changed the license accordingly. Yes, it is the same open-source document just added for Inkscape use. I'm sure that this is a palette being used for Carbon Design System which is a totally open-source design system, primarily maintained and used by IBM itself. As far as I've read their documentations (both carbon design system and the link that I've provided) I don't see any legal issues in publishing the colors.
I'm having issues though since when I change the category I cannot change the license to CC-BY-SA
