2. When create_rssfeed.pl is run (either by the cronjob or manually it does the following:
	* Downloads the latest version of ther sermons webpage (http://www.arpc.org.au/sermons) to sermons.html
        * Converts the table in the sermons webpage to a Comma Seperated Value (CSV) file called sermons.csv
        * Creates a new file called podcast.rss, puts some rss header info in it 
        * Converts the sermons.csv file into rss format and writes this to the podcast.rss file
        * Writes some footer rss information into the podcast.rss file
3. This podcast has been submitted to itunes using the submit podcast function in itunes
