<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Hey Ruby!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Good point – thanks for bringing it up :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I was brought up to think that red was one of those colours that people had different (and sometimes really negative) associations with. When I look at our latest and greatest! ironic
documentation (e.g. [1]), I see red. Not only do I see red, but the term has a different background colour and is bordered (or whatever it is called). Are we using the wrong .rst syntax, should we be highlighting terms differently? And/or is there some way
to change the appearance of highlighted terms? I much prefer something simple, like bold black text in some uniform font. On the other hand, perhaps lots of others like this and I'm in the minority.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Andreas is right – the red definitely correct, and this is how we have always done it in manuals. But that doesn’t mean we have to continue. We just need to come up with another strong, inoffensive colour
that matches; I believe the red was chosen to simply contrast the blue. A compromise, and complementary colour[0], would be orange. How would you feel about this?</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I hesitated about sending this due to the wonderful bike shedding that could happen, don't disappoint me, cuz I'm sure we all have opinions about colour. :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Not going to lie, also afraid of all the bike shedding! But you bring up a good point – and I don’t want others to also feel negatively about our documentation. We should be as inclusive as we can.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"> </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Also, this email thread isn't about discussing the green and orange colours used for the code blocks; feel free to start your own thread about that if you want!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">No thanks, if I can avoid it :P</span><o:p></o:p></p>
