Hi there,
    I would like to remove the cron job in ieee-data (closes: #826104) since 
we are DDoS IEEE servers every month. I was hopping that the amount of stable 
installations were gentle with their servers, but I underestimate the amount 
of Debian installations (and overestimated the IEEE servers). Anyway, I still 
getting reports from people that we are getting fetching problems. So, here is 
the patch.
