I did a yum install of the BuildRequires and here's the list of packages
that it says weren't available:

That's 69 packages, so here's my questions:
In general, how much work will it be for each of the packages?
Would I have to be the maintainer for all of them?
It's probably less than that - one package usually has multipse mvn(*)
provides. But then there will be other packages - transitive requires
and build-requires. And yes, you would need to become maintainer of all
required packages.
I just realised that Michal Srb is working on packaging Jenkins as
software collection for RHEL 6 and 7. The results are available on [1].
This work is not complete yet, but I assume all packages listed there
will need to be built for EPEL 7 if you want to have jenkins there.
