If we are going to mess more with this, could we consider a new format
/ structure for news.xml which is less annyoing to work with?  I find
the current structure of news/year/month/day/event much more painful
to both update and parse in XSLT than a simple "news/event" format
where the date is then just include inside each entry.

When trying to rework the security advisory page (not yet committed) I
ended up changing the format of the file which made parsing so much
simpler since I could just work on the complete list in XSLT...

Just my 0.00000001DKR and not more since I will not have time to do
this for the news page myself in any case.
