Done and done.

I'll remove myself, or you can kick me :( one I know you have 
successfully received ownership. I tried to invite the group git-scm but 
that couldn't be found, probably you can do that (and then remove 
yourself :p)

Would have been useful to transfer ownership of a group, iirc you do 
that with repo's as well? Under the hood it could use the invite + 
remove members thing. Though this works.
