This is a troubling situation. Launchpad sends this token, but the
owner is a publicly-archived mailing list.
All an attacker needs to do is submit a request to claim the team, then
read the archive to find the token and claim the team.
Should launchpad have a warning against assigning group ownership to a
public mailing list?
fwiw, i've been on the Debian Javascript Maintainers mailing list for
over a year and i've never heard of anyone named vovd.
