For the CVS account you need a sponsor. Sponsors are informed about

For the update in CVS, you need no review. Surely somebody could import

these updates for trying out the Fedora Extras CVS framework yourself.

Yeah, we should really start collecting such packages somewhere, too, and
declare them "deprecated", so they could be removed in the future.
