Yes, I think it's a good time to bring up retiring python3-dateutil.
I've also requested membership for that list, and included the list
owners here, maybe they can expedite our requests.

As python-dateutil is not (yet) under the python-sig group maintainership [1], you could reach the maintainers of python-dateutil under ther -owner mail address (CC'ed).
python-sig@fp.o is for all group maintained package maintainers and general python related questions are handled on python-devel@fp.o (also CC'ed). (Sorry for the confusion, the python-sig groupmaintainership started very recently and is still a work in process.)

I'd say it depends, how python3 will be introduced in F22, which package should provide the subpackage and the other one should be retired.
Maybe someone from [2] could comment on what they like to see in the future. I don't mind having two separate packages until we approach F22 and the future process is here.

Packaging Python extension modules should keep working the way it did up until F21. python-dateutil will still be the Python2 build, python3-datetuil will still be the Python3 build. There are some guidelines changes that I proposed for F22 [1], but I think they don't influence dateutil.
