As a way of saying thank you to our community, we are pleased to offer special discounts to Fedora contributors who register for upcoming Red Hat training courses.
Thanks for the offer. However, I have a question concerning the selection criteria.
In short, however, if you are an active Fedora contributore (you have a @fedoraproject.org email address), you can get up to 20-25% almost any Red Hat training class.
How does this offer reconcile with this announcement from Mike McGrath on eliminating those very same email addresses?

I actually prefer not having such an email address, as I use Gmail for all my correspondence.

Everybody who is signed up in the Fedora Account system as a contributor has a alias regardless of whether you are using it. Since it is just a alias you can continue using your gmail id.
Mike Mcgrath's post was not about eliminating all aliases just the ones in the firstname.lastname format. You would instead now be using the accountname@fedoraproject.org format.
Hope that helps.

Thanks - I wasn't aware that it was automatically assigned.
Once again, it's a nice benefit and much appreciated.
