Monthly progress report

I finally took the time to give our website a little facelift. The news section used to be just a long text document. This was replaced with ABlog a blogging extension for Sphinx. It makes the news section a little more manageable, without adding much maintenance overhead. While I was at it, I slightly increased the font size and limited the width of the website.
