It contains some account numbers I'd rather not have public. The gem has been yanked/unpublished but is still reachable via Google search. Can I get it deleted please?

Thanks!

   There is no way for us to delete the gem from the internet because there are services that hook into rubygems.org and download every gem pushed. I heavily suggest you change the account numbers.

   I do realize you can't delete the gem from the Internet at large. The support docs at http://help.rubygems.org/kb/gemcutter/removing-a-published-rubygem mention that a gem can be perma-deleted in cases where the gem contains sensitive data. Is that no longer possible?

   Gotcha, yes, we can delete it from the systems we have access to. I was just being clear about the scope of what we've got control of.
