Hi Sérgio,

this retirement was announced 6 months ago [1] and was scheduled for
2016-02-23. That action slipped and was not carried out in the
previous development cycle, but is done now when we are again in
pre-alpha phase.

Nevertheless, if you want to keep one of those packages, you can always
contribute a systemd unit. The fact that nobody did that since systemd
became default in F15 suggests that those packages don't have enough
maintainer care. noip seems to be one of those.
