We've recently switched to a new and improved account system.  It looks
like this particular magic got lost.  I think that for this use, we
should be pointing people at the new page
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/view/cvsextras but add an
option to filter by role_type.

The other option at the moment is to download the file from this location:

https://admin.fedoraproject.org/accounts/group/dump?groupname=cvsextras

and grep for sponsor

I'll open a ticket against FAS (Fedora Account System) to decide where
to provide such a filter.

If you could add some of this information to the wiki that would be
appreciated.
