First, to reintroduce myself. I last posted from the IT department of a
pharmaceutical company. But contracts change in the blink of an eye, and
I am now working (again) for an Internet infrastructure company.

And I'm preparing documentation, in English, for Japan. In documentation
til now, warnings have been printed in red. But it just occurred to me
that red may not mean 'warning' in Japan. Does anyone know what colour
does mean 'warning', or does it matter?

Thanks.
