The new emacs site at www.gnu.org/software/emacs links to
emacsrocks.com. But emacsrocks.com has non-free javascript on it in the
form of Google Analytics.

>From the source of emacsrocks.com:

"""
(function() {
  var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true;
  ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ? 'https://ssl' : 'http://www') + '.google-analytics.com/ga.js';
  var s = document.getElementsByTagName('script')[0]; s.parentNode.insertBefore(ga, s);
})();
"""

This is a problem. Either emacsrocks.com needs to stop using non-free
JS, or the FSF should remove that link.
