This isn't the list of hw embargo people. This is the list of
"ambassadors" who can help people work through the security disclosure
process. My impression is that it's to tell me that I should contact
Konrad, since he also works at Oracle, to help me through the process.
It's not for people outside Oracle to contact.

If I have the wrong impression of that list, perhaps the description
could be clarified.
