Sister Claire,
it is still the same thing in big companies I know from a girl friend.

Maybe I can throw in a word or two here as someone who was a
translator for
a couple of decades. For a long time it was usual for UK companies
to keep
UK spelling when they marketed in the US because UK spelling was
believed to
be perceived by Americans as having an aura of prestige. For a
similar, but
opposite reason, American companies marketing in the UK adopted UK
spelling
there. I don't do that kind of translation any more, so I don't know
today's
practice.
