Bug Description

Since Django version 1.4.x has been out for a while, I thought I'd try and see what happened if I upgraded from 1.3.2 which is specified in requirements.txt to the latest version. Turns out this will raise an ImportError when trying to access the home page:
No module named feeds
/home/ubuntu/wlwebsite/code/widelands/../widelands/news/feeds.py in <module>
    from django.contrib.syndication.feeds import FeedDoesNotExist

Looks like we try to use a module which no longer exists. I have not investigated further so I don't know if it has simply been moved or if we need to find a replacement. Currently it would be blocking migrating to newer versions of Django though, which would be nice to be able to.

(Tried with Django 1.4.2)

I just wished django would treat more carefully when updating... Shevona, I assigned you as you are the king of the website code right now. Feel free to unassign if you have no time.
