It's if you want your two emails to be associated. If you don't
associate them and you don't get >20 commits in the last 36
months on either individually then you won't be eligible for the
general assembly. You can still see which commits are on each
email (since this is important for copyright reasons).

It is just a visual thing: I will swap your association to show
your gmail email first.
