Re: Standards for warning icons

["Gene Kim-Eng" <techwr -at- genek -dot- com>]

I don't think IEEE is referring to procedures when they say "informative 
text," but rather to introductory paragraphs, theory of operation, etc. 
Their proscribed placement is to place general notices at the beginning 
of a document and warnings that are procedure-specific at the steps to 
which they apply.
