Matsubara, can you describe exactly what you did for step 3? I.e. how did you change the team's name? Thanks!

Barry, I changed the name by using the admin +review page. That page is not linked anywhere visible, AFAICT and can only be accessed by LP admins.

Changed in launchpad:
importance: Undecided → Low
milestone: none → 1.2.3
assignee: nobody → barry

Really, it should be possible for a LP admin to rename a team, either after the Mailman side has been manually renamed, or if we can automate the latter, at the same time.
