Per Section 4.12 of RFC 7322 ("RFC Style Guide" --
https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc7322.txt), "Contact information must include
a long-lived email address").
For now, we have listed the email address provided on
<http://www.isthe.com/chongo/address.html>; your contact information now
appears as follows. Please let us know if you would prefer to use a different
email address:
Landon Curt Noll
Email: [email protected]
URI: http://www.isthe.com/chongo

We made this update. However, we see that the provided page says
"If you use an FNV function in an application, why not tell us about it by
sending Email to:
[email protected]"
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> is the email address
that was removed yesterday per Eliot and Paul, as noted below.
