How would this apply to something like EPEL, which in el6 has XFCE packaged. Would it be acceptable to pull that in, or would that

That was something that I figured would also need to be planned for. Where do these packages live? Who is caring for them? My initial viewpoint is that it would be nice if the people on a desktop were co-maintainers on the package set if it were in EPEL.
Beware that - leaving sponsorship aside - becoming an EPEL maintainer implies accepting the Fedora EULA. I know of people who refused to /could not become Fedora contributors because they could/would not accept that license.
I don't know of a Fedora EULA (which would be an End User License Agreement). There is a Fedora Contributor Agreement which replaced a different one (Fedora ICLA) which did have the stigma you listed above .

Most of these rules seem to be common sense ones..
