Do you have an account with *any* OpenID provider? There are plenty of
options aside from Google or Yahoo, including hosting your own:

https://help.launchpad.net/YourAccount/OpenID
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenID
https://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/wiki/OpenID
http://wiki.openid.net/w/page/12995226/Run%20your%20own%20identity%20server

Aside from OpenID Gerrit allows for HTTP or LDAP authentication but
OpenID is the easiest to use and manage by far from both a user and
sysadmin perspective.
