FYI, the recent FSF address "change" turns out to be a no-op.
I suggested to Brett that the /about/contact page say so, to avoid
further confusion about the discrepancy.

The "Fifth Floor"/"Suite 500" distinction is meaningless; we regularly
get mail at both addresses, as well as other variants. It's the
difference between writing "Apartment 1" and "#1".

According to <http://zip4.usps.com/>, -1301 is still a valid +4 for our
address, just slightly less specific. So I vote we do nothing.
