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 at fp.o is for all group maintained package maintainers and general
python related questions are handled on python-devel at 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.

Greetings,
