UTF-8 documentation

[Jim Gettys]

Sounds like a plan: we should convert to using an up to date
version of docbook, that the other major projects use and
therefore run cross platform (e.g. docbook is used by Gnome and
KDE).

Dunno what dtd to use though.  Cross that bridge when we understand
where it is and we get to it.
