So I ask again what steps am I missing here? I want to take over
packaging something that is about to be removed from Fedora Linux since
it has been orphaned, I have signed the agreements, I have asked to
become a packager, and this is actually the second package I am trying
to take over.
You say you have "asked to become a packager" but what exactly
do you mean by that?
The official documentation on becoming a packager is here:

But actually I think the old wiki version is much more useful
in explaining how things work, especially if you're not coming
at it from the position of submitting a new package:

Basically you need to find somebody to sponsor you as a
packager - normally that happens as part of having your first
package review but obviously that doesn't work when you want
to take over an existing package.
