Instead of keeping e-mail addresses in WHOIS, why not just keep a URL that
(theoretically) has up-to-date contact information. This would allow the
organization to publish whatever e-mail addresses they wanted to, as well as
solving the problem of spammers walking the db. A web page should be just as
easy (if not easier) to keep up to date than WHOIS data.
