Problem fixed. Pilot error. I had registered my fingerprint rather than
my whole public key at https://id.apache.org. You need to register the
whole public key, including the trailing machine identifier.

I have been trying to follow the instructions at
https://blogs.apache.org/infra/entry/committer_shell_access_to_people
without any success. I have gone so far as to do the following:
1) Deleted all the files under ~/.ssh
2) Created new credentials thusly...
ssh-keygen -t rsa
3) Started an ssh agent thusly...
eval `ssh-agent`
4) Added my identity to the agent thusly...
ssh-add
Note that that appears to have worked because the following command
returned status 0...
echo $?
5) Logged onto https://id.apache.org and successfully recorded the key
fingerprint from step 2) above. At least I was thrown onto a page with
this cheerful message:
"Details change successful"
6) Waited 5 minutes and tried to log onto people.apache.org. But I
received the original diagnostic.
7) Tried again 10 minutes later. Still no joy.
Any suggestions about what I am doing wrong?
Thanks,
