Need to determine what is proper validation (since could be international numbers)

Also, do we even want to ask for phone?

RE: Gustavo asking, "Also, do we even want to ask for phone?" I've been wondering this as well. During usability sessions, most users skip over that field as it isn't required. I was wondering what the thought is behind having the phone number, it isn't displayed anywhere for an end user to see so are we using it for anything?

Confirmed with Merce that it is okay to remove the phone number field on the create account form.
