People should not sit in NEED-SPONSOR status and just expect 
sponsorship.  The best way to get sponsorship is to continue doing other 
work, like reviewing other packages, giving helpful advice, or 
submitting more packages for review.  Having approved packages is *NOT* 
the requirement for gaining cvsextras sponsorship.  Instead 
demonstrating that you understand the packaging guidelines and Fedora 
process to sponsor members is what is necessary to gain sponsorship.
