Upgrading LATEX 2.09 classes and packages

This section describes the changes you may need to make when you upgrade an existing LATEX style to a package or class but we shall start in optimistic mode.

Many existing style files will run with LATEX2e without any modification to the file itself. When everything is running OK, please put a note in the newly created package or class file to record that it runs with the new standard LATEX; then distribute it to your users.
