It's not a position you can get "sponsored into", one needs to earn the
trust over time. By current definition, that is. Which puts upstream
authors such as yourself into a weird and annoying position where you can
put out the releases of the actual software, <insert large number here>
number of people use the software but unless people get around to
review the packages in QA queue you can put the packages into fedora.us :(
The "packager is upstream developer" situation should be sanitized
somehow...
For now, just submit your packages to QA to get the ball rolling.
