You must write a script that converts any property on any object in your 
site that is latin-1 to utf-8.

So first find all objects you use. See what types they are.

Find all text and string attributes on those opjects.

Write a function that converts from latin to utf and run that on every 
object.

The hard part will be finding all the attributes, but perhaps you can 
write a method that can help find those properties for you using 
introspection.
