Antinews is a cute idea, but IMO once you've appreciated the joke,
that's it and you never think about it again.

Since there aren't enough people to maintain the non-comedy aspects of
Emacs documentation, I would like to see antinews removed, so that we
can spend the (admittedly tiny) time saving on other areas.

As it stands I view it as yet another item on the release checklist,
which is already so long that more important things (IMO) get dropped.
