Asheesh already has a set of RSVPs so he can just email them to tell
them to request dev access ahead of time.

"If you don't already have access to Wikimedia Labs and our Git and
Gerrit systems, please request it now:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Developer_access We'll process you now so
you can use it at the hackathon."

is what I said last time and it worked.
