Would it make sense to add something like the following to the
Committers Guide [1]?
Now: "Ensure your name and email address are there as the committer
prior to pushing it to the Apache repositories."
Suggestion: "Ensure your name and email address are there as the
committer prior to pushing it to the Apache repositories. Please read
the 'which hat' guide before deciding whether to use your @apache.org,
personal or other email address. See also this discussion."
where "this discussion" would be a link precisely to this thread.
That would hopefully at least make it clear what the various options
and opinions are?
