You can't go from private archives to public archives. I'd just email Mark in this case, since there are no members yet. He's very accomodating.

Hi Jeff,
What about going to Settings for your group and changing Privacy settings? I believe you can't re-use the same group name if you delete your group. However, there is a message from Shal saying that you could ask Mark to free up the name. (I used the new search and it found it! Hurrah!) /g/GroupManagersForum/message/1557
