commits not associated with github user?

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi Anirvan,

interesting idea, thank you!

But the openjdk mail addresses are not valid. I hesitate to add an invalid
mail address to my Github profile. I'd rather that the correct mail
addresses be used by the Skara tools, those we are registered in the census
with and which are used by the Github account. Especially since these fake
addresses also add confusion to mailing list traffic.

Thanks, Thomas
