I don't know about the ejb* and pljava directories, but the jdbc driver should 
stay there as it should be the "default" way to access a postGIS database from 
Java. For example, the HIbernate Spatial extension uses this driver[1].

Are you sure there is no-one maintaining it? Yesterday there was a commit[2].

Anyway, if you need someone to maintain it, I can take a look as I am 
interested on the continuity of this driver.
