I did not send an email. I used the web interface at:

   https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/python-ideas

I would be happy if the name of the group could be changed from


"a mirror of the python-ideas at python.org mailing list for the general public"

to

"a **read only** mirror of the python-ideas at python.org mailing list for the general public"

Who can do this? I could not find a way to contact an owner of this mirror.

Regards,
   Thomas Güttler
