Thanks for the interest.  The main Orbit page

        http://www.eclipse.org/orbit/
has a link to the mailing list with the information
related to Getting started and Getting involved.  The "resources"
page 
        http://eclipse.org/orbit/resources.php
(linked in the "Orbit links" box on the
right of all Orbit pages) includes a link to the mailing list info page
and all other elements related to Orbit infrastructure.

The context for the wiki entry was different.  It
was more pointing out that Orbit is mainly populated by committers on other
projects.  I agree completely that the entry should be clarified.
 I added a link to the wiki entry.

Great.  Talk to you then.  Sorry about the
time.  Future calls will be earlier...
