even simpler : I've never been aware of linux-kernel-announce. It's possible that only Linus sends there and that even the -stable team does not use/know about it either.

we all have somewhat different scripts. Those scripts do 80% of the work depending on our environments, mostly in order to avoid common mistakes, and we do the remaining 20% by hand. Anyway I think it's not difficult for any of us to add a new address.
