Well, since the files haven't been updated for a decade or so, I am not sure if these people still consider (or can consider) themselves as maintainers. Actually, _I_ would like to be a maintainer (or one of them).
Nonetheless, I will try to contact them.

Since I often have anonymous PL/SQL blocks in SQL scripts (plus SQL*Plus commands) and since there is definitely a lot of SQL in PL/SQL code, I thought there is no point to have several files; all syntax info can be in one. Easier to maintain, and might be easier even for vim (less stuff to work with while displaying the source code).
