Depend how clean you want the access to be. since jenkins is root there,
you can just add your ssh keys to the builders if you can define a new
job.

Why the difference between maintainers and developpers, ie, why not let
manual trigger ?

But we still miss the "who decide what go in what group".

Also, that's 3 groups for just jenkins, and we already have 23 teams on
github. I am a bit concerned about having more groups than builder for
EL6, and would really see a simpler model access.
