Hello PlantUML team, and all PlantUML fans,

To propose a color on github/linguist#5003, here is a [non-existential] question (see also plantuml/plantuml#596):

What is the color of PlantUML? (or what would be the color of the PlantUML language?)

All proposals are welcome...

Hints :
One of the colors of the PlantUML logo:

```
#991039 of the U
```
```
#ffba39 of the M
```
```
#16003a of the L
```

Compare to the color of UML logo:

```
#962444 of the U
```
```
#fbbd16 of the M
```
```
#452e7f of the L
```

In the linked GitHub question I see that @plantuml has spoken for the UML color scheme, I second this it should be uniform though the current PlantUML logo is a good approximation.

Though:

did the UML consortium / OMG describe the color sequence somewhere? (see e.g. https://www.omg.org/legal/graphical_style.htm)
Did the UML consortium / OMG protect the UML logo / its color uses, especially the later might be of importance. (see e.g. https://www.omg.org/legal/tm_list.htm)
