You need to create a fas-account, apply for the packager-group and create a package review request in bugzilla that includes the information that you need to be sponsored. A potential sponsor will probably want to see a litte more work done by you that shows that you've understood the fedora packaging principles - so doing a couple of 'pre-reviews' of packages (font or not) is probably a good idea.
