[CTAN Announcements]

David Carlisle submitted an update to the

                    ucs

package.

Version:  2.3 2022-08-07

Summary description:  Extended UTF-8 input encoding support for LaTeX

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
 
 Update to the ucs package and inputenc [utf8x] option
 
 New Support address

 https://github.com/LaTeX-Package-Repositories/ucs/issues

 This update (By David Carlisle, with permission from the original
 authors, Dominique Unruh and Wolfgang Jeltsch) makes

     \usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
 
 act like the standard utf8 option, so has no effect in most cases
 as UTF-8 is the default encoding in recent LaTeX releases.

 If the ucs package is explicitly loaded, the original utf8x
 definitions are used, but ucs.sty and utf8x.def have been updated
 to use e-tex \protected definitions to make them compatible with
 Unicode support in LaTeX, notably \MakeUppercase in the June 2022 LaTeX
