Heh. Actually, a closer look reveals that we're not at all.
In fact we're doing:

from zope.app.rotterdam.standardmacros import StandardMacros as BaseMacros

class StandardMacros(BaseMacros):
    macro_pages = ('common_macros', 'mydnanews_macros', 'main_template',)

... which means we get exactly nothing from using rotterdam, since
rotterdam.standardmacros looks just like the above, it merely defines
a different macro_pages tuple and imports the macros from basicskin.

So in fact we're not using rotterdam at all, we're just using a single
class that we could get from zope.app.basicskin rather than rotterdam.
