I do worry about another thing though, other users of the repository would see two different e-mail addresses, that might worry or confuse them, especially if they want to write some recgonize script and don't realise there are two e-mail addresses. They may also start wondering if one is real and the other one fake ! But besides from that neat solution ! Does require some extra setup from github... I wasn't sure if that was possible, so for now I believe you ! ;) It does give some e-mail redundancy... however it might also be risky/annoying, what if some day github requires two real e-mail addresses and if it's not real it will decide that one was fake and starts deleting commits or locks you out or something... E-mail is kinda special... also I see another problem with this solution, if the e-mail addresses are fake and somebody tries to reach you it won't work. Also google groups prevents me from seeing your actual solution, I don't really see your solution. I only see foo.. So I assume you encoded your machine somehow into the e-mail address. Try and explain it one more time, but don't use the @ sign because that makes the google bot trip up and hide the information in some stupid link.
