Hola Ricardo, I can join the effort. I already have a extremely custom
(patches and configuration changes) JBoss 4.2 RPM for internal use. It
is not to the level of Fedora packaging standards, but I think the
experience packaging it is helpful, even if the 5.x codebase is
different

Yes, I think we should start with JBoss 5.x too

My workflow when I package something Java related with a lot of
dependencies is that I start at the top level and not thinking too
much
about the dependencies. In this case I will start packaging JBoss
as-is
(before adding it to Fedora repositories), it means using the already
build dependencies from the public maven repositories or bundled in
the
source tar, and then replacing one by one with the required links to
Fedora packages one by one, adding what is needed to be added to
Fedora
or requesting upgrades to the packages needed
