Ah, unpublished packages. That explains it.

Well, if the packager's download site is not reachable, the package can't
be reviewed either. Maybe it's just a temporary problem. Maybe the
packager doesn't even know about it. You could add a comment to above
ticket and tell him. Some packagers also provide extracted spec files at
their download site.

I think it's not in fedora.us' responsibility to make available spec files
of unpublished packages (which can be arbitrary packages in the package
queue).
