This removal has been problematic for a lot of software including the listed 
EPEL dependencies and anything those depend on. I propose the following be done:

- Temporarily un-retire Django14 in EPEL6, and allow a planned sunset after 
some period of time. It would not receive updates during this time since 
upstream Django deprecated it already.

- Add python-django[0] from EPEL7 (python-django-1.6.11-5.el7) to EPEL6 in a 
way that has allows some time overlap with Django14 being also available. 
During that time other packages can switch to using python-django gracefully. 
This should be feasible because Django 1.6 is the last Django Y release which 
will run on Python 2.6 making it feasible to run on EL6.

Other ideas or suggestions are welcome.
