26018 - mozilla.org internic needs an update (maybe ?)

Description

[John Morrison]

Hey Risto, 

Someone, in pursuit of how to unsubscribe from the newsgroup/mailing-lists
noted the following about the internic registration for mozilla.org.

  "I had to go to www.networksolutions.com/whois to get the following
   information.  The administrative contact's phone number is
   disconnected.  I've sent e-mail to all the addresses, with a
   formal request."

I've added my query of the same to this bug report, and it looks wrong to
me. In particular the admin-contact (jg) should be switched to someone
else (or better to an alias) [unless, of course, jg is still acting as the
admin contact, but I doubt it].

Since meer.net handles our dns, having contact info for people
at meer.net is correct. The short version of this guy's problem is that
he was very mad at us for not working on Sunday. Meer.net surely isn't
interested in listening to stuff like this so having the wrong number
listed can only be a bonus. Besides, that's the phone number listed in
meer.net's own registration.

As long as billing contact is good and renewals are paid when they come due I 
think this is fine. meer.net is handling this and we should worry, right?

Certainly, the guy on the newsgroup was just venting his frustration. But the 
reason I filed this (very minor) report was that the admin contact is the 
former [e-mail] -- which is cool if he still really is the admin contact
for mozilla.org.

jg is at meer.net so this info is still correct.
marking invalid.

That's seems good to me (just thought he was otherwise busy :-]).
