I've started to clean up the list of approved review-tickets which were never closed when I found https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=564412
The package bwping was approved and a git repo created, but it always have been empty. It's currently orphaned both on Fedora and EPEL, but it was never retired. So, I think this is an anomaly of the auto retirement script.
Apart from that, I'm wondering what's the best course of action to do with this package: should I self take and retire it, or it is best to completely delete the git repo since nothing has never been in it? Is it possible, and how?

I think in this circumstance, it would just make sense to delete the repo and clear everything out.

Is there a src.fedoraproject.org project and is it in pdc yet?
If it's just the repo, I'm fine with deleting it and saying it never happened. :)
If it's other places, it might actually be easier to take the package, then instantly retire it with a dead.package so everyone knows what happened.

I don't know about pdc, but it is in src.fedoraproject.org and, I've just checked, in Bugzilla.
So, I think it's easier to take & retire, I'll do the same also for other packages in the same situation (if any).
