What happened to python-dev's Google Group?

http://groups.google.com/group/python-dev2
It seems it no longer exists. What happened?

I don't know, but something happened to the numpy-discussion Google Group
gateway, too. Maybe there was a mass culling of such gateways that weren't being
maintained, or something like that.

Not this again.

This happened back in August, with a whole range of groups seemingly
vanishing, including the group for web.py. They came back eventually,
but of course Google doesn't say anything about what happened.

Google crashed for a day a week or so ago. It recovered,
but not 100%. You can still see the effects in
alt.folklore.computers (infamous for its never ending
threads) that now has numerous sub-threads promoted to
independent threads all with the same name.
