LaTeX base system now supports UTF-8

In mid February, the LaTeX project team released a new version that now
supports UTF-8. For details, see

  ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/base/utf8ienc.dtx

You now can finally simply replace

  \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}

with

  \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}

and can this way move all your non-ASCII LaTeX input to UTF-8 as well.

LaTeX was in my personal working environment pretty much the last
package that caused me still to keep a few ISO 8859-1 files around.
