Bot filter coming soon

To deter bots pegging the database CPU to 100%, a bot testing filter to be added to the website. This should not affect newsfeeds etc. Anubis seems light-weight - it is already in use within the FreeBSD Project. This notice is just a heads up in case you see something odd. This notice will be updated after Anubis is installed.

Description:
nwg-menu displays the system menu with simplified FreeDesktop Main Categories (8 instead of 13). It also provides the search entry, to look for installed application on the basis of .desktop files, and for files in XDG user directories. It's being developed with sway in mind, but should also work with other wlroots-based Wayland compositors such as Wayfire.
