The sources of JBoss EAP are available in ftp.redhat.com, like any Red
Hat sources. But building them is nearly impossible, because the EAP
sources depend on versions of other components that aren't available in
maven central or any other public maven repository. You can manage to
find the required versions of the sources of those components, but it
would be a huge task.
