Vow ! Never knew that such queries are possible with GitHub, not that
I am a git-user but kind of fascinated with its idea anyway. Now,
wouldn't it be nice for programmers to shed their humility or come off
their stealth mode and brandise their programming prowess ?


Depends on what you mean by that - emailing those people would, imho, be
a case of Unsolicited Contact. If you were to personalise it about their
work or comment on specific projects - its all good.

But sending an email to everyone on github who identifies themselves as
being in Chennai with a 'I added you to a list' is a bit naughty.
