1. follow the instructions here:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/CvsAccess
2. put your name here if you do not already have a sponsor
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SponsorsNeeded
3. post to fedora-extras-list that you're looking for a sponsor
4. nag/bribe people into sponsoring you
5. Once you have a sponsor and your cvs account you're in good shape.
