There are few things which might not be obvious to a newcomer
(apologies if you know all this stuff):
1. The Eclipse project is very unusual among open source projects in
that traditionally the mailing lists are reserved uniquely for project
committers. Everyone else is directed to use the newsgroups/forums.

2. The Papyrus developers use public Eclipse mailing lists much less
than other projects. Since they all work for the CEA or one of its
contractors, I presume they have other private communications channels
available to them.
3. The time after the big annual release tends to be quieter because
everyone's catching their breath and recuperating.
