Are you in contact with John Flanagan and the Release Engineering people about all this? They gave us a presentation when the EAP team was meeting in Westford, and what you describe sounds very much like what they are working on expanding Red Hat's existing Brew and Koji systems to handle. They're working to expand the system to handle ant- and maven-based builds. The binaries for anything that goes into a Red Hat supported product have to be built through that system. Reason is the build reproducibility issue Adrian mentions, along with auditability. They talked less about Koji, but my understanding is it's a community-oriented tool that does a similar thing.
