I remember reporting the bug a while ago. I dug up the topic: http://www.ftlgame.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=11821

It was indeed fixed in 1.03.3 (or was it?) and the colors match the skill level of the crewmember manning the station.
Blue: inexperienced
Green: Skilled *
Gold: Master **

There's no evidence they're called skilled or mastery, i just called them that.

Ah. I hadn't considered bugs.

However the following is from a 1.03.3 Let's Play in September 2013. (weapons)

This bug appears not to have been fixed.

Why not? 1 star crew, the console glows green, as is intended...
It'd glow yellow if the manning crew was 2 star.

D'oh. I didn't see that the meaning of *green* had changed.
Two stars does indeed turn it yellow in 1.03.3.
