Hi Mattia and thanks for your interest in RPM Fusion.

Looking at the Fedora Legal review, this package was denied because of
the license terms of the code was not compliant with fedora (unless it
was about the RSS content?).  So this make this package possibly ends
in the nonfree section.

About sponsorship, It would be better for you to be sponsored in
fedora, as this will automatically sponsor you into RPM Fusion. That
been said, you can still do unformal reviews here.
