All apache.org emails are configured to be aliases for committer's personal email ids. So, you will need to add the committer's personal email id to the commits@f.a.o list in any case. The only advantage of adding the apache.org email id in GitHub would be that the 'from' field will have the apache.org email id. This keeps it consistent with Apache Git's emails. So, I have updated the proposal to say that it is 'recommended, but not compulsory' for adding the apache.org email address as the default email in GitHub.
