Sorry to reply to my own post so soon, but I did find something.

The email the script is complaining about is someone who authored an  
update (actually updated screen shots for the manual) but the commit  
was done by someone else.  Even if I get that person's permission to  
add him to relicensecheck.pl, that script will continue to complain  
about his email address, since it will not be in the accounts file,  
unless he does get a developer account.  Entries in the script are by  
username, not email, so I don't see any way around this, unless a file  
is added to accounts and disabled-accounts, such as  
non-committing-authors (or some shorter version).
