-\section{Welcome to \LaTeXNews~2}
-
-An issue of \emph{\LaTeXNews} will accompany every future release of
-\LaTeX. It will tell you about important events, such as major bug
-fixes, newly available packages, or any other \LaTeX{} news.
-
-\section{December 1994 release of \LaTeX}
-
-December 1994 sees the second release of \LaTeXe. We are on schedule
-to deliver a release of \LaTeX{} every six months, in December and
-June.
-
-This release has seen quite a lot of activity, which is not too
-surprising as it's only been a year since the first test release of
-\LaTeXe. We don't expect so much activity in the next six months.
-
-Many of the changes are minor improvements and bug-fixes---see
-\emph{\LaTeXe{} for authors} (\verb|usrguide.tex|), \emph{\LaTeXe{}
-font selection} (\verb|fntguide.tex|) and our change log
-(\verb|changes.txt|) for more details.
-
-However, there are two important new packages available for \LaTeX:
-\texttt{inputenc} and AMS-\LaTeX.
-
-\section{Accented input}
-
-One of the problems with writing non-English documents in \LaTeX{} is
-the accent commands. Reading documents containing text like
-\verb|na\"\i ve| is frustrating, especially if your keyboard allows
-you to type \texttt{na\"\i ve}.
-
-In the past, \LaTeX{} has not supported input containing accented
-characters such as \texttt{\"\i}, because Windows, Macintosh and Unix
-all have different ways of dealing with accented input, called
-\emph{input encodings}.
-
-However, the \verb|inputenc| package allows you to specify which input
-encoding your document is written with, for example to use the ISO
-Latin-1 encoding, you type:
-\begin{verbatim}
- \usepackage[latin1]{inputenc}
-\end{verbatim}
-At the moment, \verb|inputenc| supports the \verb|ascii| and
-\verb|latin1| input encodings, but more will be added with future
-releases.
-
-The \verb|inputenc| package is
-currently a test release. The user interface for the full release will
-be upwardly compatible with the test version.
-
-\section{AMS-\LaTeX{}}
-
- AMS-\LaTeX{} is a set of miscellaneous extensions for \LaTeX{}
- distributed by the American Mathematical Society. They provide superior
- information structure and superior printed output for mathematical
- documents.
-
- There are far too many features of AMS-\LaTeX{} to list here.
- AMS-\LaTeX{} is described in the accompanying documentation,
- and in \emph{The \LaTeX{} Companion}.
-
- Version 1.2beta of AMS-\LaTeX{} was released for testing by intrepid
- users in October 1994. The full release of AMS-\LaTeX{}~1.2 is expected
- in early January 1995.
-
- It will be divided into two bundles:
- \begin{itemize}
-
- \item the \verb|amsfonts| packages, which give access to
- hundreds of new mathematical symbols, and new math fonts
- such as blackboard bold and fraktur.
-
- \item the \verb|amsmath| packages, which provide finer control over
- mathematical typesetting, such as multi-line subscripts,
- enhanced theorem and proof environments,
- and improved displayed equations,
-
- \end{itemize}
- For compatibility with older documents, an \verb|amstex| package will be
- provided.
-
-\section{\LaTeX{} on the internet}
-
-\LaTeX{} has its own home page on the World Wide Web, with the URL:
-\begin{verbatim}
- http://www.tex.ac.uk/CTAN/latex/
-\end{verbatim}
-This page describes \LaTeX{} and the \LaTeX3 project, and contains
-pointers to other \LaTeX{} resources, such as the user guides, the
-\TeX{} Frequently Asked Questions, and the \LaTeX{} bugs database.
-
-The electronic home of anything \TeX-related is the Comprehensive
-\TeX{} Archive Network (CTAN). This is a network of cooperating ftp
-sites, with over a gigabyte of \TeX{} material:
-\begin{verbatim}
- ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/
- ftp://ftp.shsu.edu/tex-archive/
- ftp://ftp.dante.de/tex-archive/
-\end{verbatim}
-For more information, see the \LaTeX{} home page.
-
-\section{Further information}

-For more information on \TeX{} and \LaTeX, get in touch with your local
-\TeX{} Users Group, or the international \TeX{} Users Group,
