Open Stack

Hi again Nisha -

I asked Jeremy Stanley on the Infra team if there was a "window" of time
that gmail would be a blocked word. Sounds like it's a keyword within their
control (some are controlled by Mediawiki itself), so he unblocked it
earlier today. You can read more context, around this timestamp, from the
IRC logs if you're curious:
http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/irclogs/%23openstack-infra/%23openstack-infra.2017-03-06.log.html#t2017-03-06T17:26:07

So my best guess is that you hit the timing just right. :)
