With regard to who is using JCS (or should!). We use it at http://www.officedepot.com Without it I doubt we would be ranked where we are on http://www.ecommercetimes.com/ectpi/
We added a new persisting backend based on an all Java version of gdbm. I found that in a very old version of w3c's Jigsaw server. We also enhanced the p2p caching based on the hashing algorithm used by Squid. Yes we were going to contribute but at the time the JCS folks were trying to extricate JCS into a standalone CVS code base. Things were in flux to say the least. I have a hard time imagining a substantive website without a JSC component. Forward caching of data is just too critical for site speed and scalability. Quoting from Jakarta "The goal of the Apache Jakarta Project is to provide commercial-quality server solutions, based on the Java Platform, developed in an open and cooperative fashion". >From our perspective JCS is on par with Lucene or Log4j, and even Struts as an invaluable server solution component and deserves equal treatment.
