Are Luxeons Allowed?

Hey, Just a quick question. I think I know the answer, but I'm just checking. Does a Luxeon/Super-Bright LED count as an LED? I've got a kick-butt project idea, but before I go to all the effort, I want to make sure. I'm pretty sure it would be allowed though. Thanks!! Fudge.

Here's a link. Pretty cheap. I haven't ordered from them yet, so I don't know details. They also do distributorships.

A Luxeon is a LED. It's a LED competition. Um....why would it not be allowed?
