CC'ing Daniel, I don't have time to do this one, and it is a time-sensitive request.

Pavanaja: just some hints to help the devs in future:

Please possibly combine several similar requests into the one bug (makes for less bureaucracy on our end);
Please use a better bug title/summary, like "Add throttling exception for Konkani workshop, Sep 13, 2013"
Please try to file them further in advance (ideally a week in advance or more) to make sure you are not left out in the cold.

If you think such a request has gone unnoticed and the event is about to start, go to the IRC channel #wikimedia-tech on Freenode IRC and ask for help. (See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/IRC for general info on using IRC.)
