If the volume of messages discourages new contributors from joining the project that's indeed an issue. We had an average of 400 messages per month in 2014, that's on par with maven-dev, half of tomcat-dev and 1/7 of lucene-dev.
I don't think splitting the list by component is a good idea though, this will kill the community (the 'all' list is unlikely to be popular). But maybe we could consider separating the commits from the discussions (with a forced subscription to the commits for the PMC members)?
