  Just for the record:

  I have coordinated with Jarod Wilson (numpy maintainer) the removal of f2py. 
I have followed the steps described in 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/PackageEndOfLife

  I have added a dead.package file to devel, FC-6 and FC-5, removed all files 
from those directories, I have added an entry in 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/RetiredPackages

  and I have requested the removal of existing packages from those branches in 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/RepoRequests

  I guess that the only remaining step is to remove f2py from owners.list.
