What Simon said is correct.

We would prefer that contributors use their company affiliated email for 
committing. However, if there is a need for a webkit.org email (some people 
don't have access to their work email when not in the office, for example), 
please email me with your request for an @webkit.org email with the username 
you would like and where you would like it to be forwarded.

A further note is, if you are given a @webkit.org email and have a company 
affiliation, the company affiliated email should be used for committing, the 
@webkit.org email is meant for mailing lists.

Thanks!
Brian
