To have it done for ARM based would require a compatible Java runtime and various bits recompiled for ARM. This has already been done for the Synology version of bliss so I think it should work.
I'm keen to give it a go. I am a developer, however haven't done any of this sort of thing (building distro's for Linux). Are you able to give me some more pointers to get me started?
Well, I'm no ReadyNAS expert so I don't know the process for developing an add-on.
You could start with the basic Linux installer and first of all get it installing. This requires you install a Java runtime. It's best if this is Java 6.
Once that's done, try running bliss and progressively fix stuff. My guess is that two things will break: 1) the file system event listener, 2) the audio fingerprinter. You can read about doing this for Synology (also ARM) here: http://pcloadletter.co.uk/2012/09/17/bliss-package-for-synology/
Then you need a way of packaging it all together so the add-on installs with one click.

Sadly that is an x86 port, not ARM.
:(

This is already available for Intel based devices:
