I know they have changed definitions at least once, but I don't know that it is a regular occurrence. They recommend you buy new swatches every year, which is a sales ploy, based on the fact that printed colors fade over time, and only new swatches can be completely accurate.

I know in many print shops there is a hierarchy of swatch sets, where new ones are bought for the top salesmen and press foremen, who pass on their year old copies to lesser sales people and pressmen, and so on down to the bottom of the pile, the estimators who can work with an old set since they only need to calculate the ink costs for defined colors.
