Log message:
        We're not using htdig anymore, we don't want the FAQ converted to XML 
at the moment, and the announce-events script I don't think is running anymore. 
Even if it is, the more correct place to pull events from these days would be 
fsf.org/events, as that's where RMS's assistant posts them.
