No, Axis2 always had its own mailing lists and they have been migrated to the new TLP. There is another factor: in a rather inactive project (inactive in the sense of no more development), a dev list tends to be used as a user list. When all of a sudden the subscribers of such a list are confronted with the dev list traffic of an active and healthy project, they may indeed be overwhelmed. Looking at the previous comments, this seems to be the case for the xmlrpc list. Since we not only merged the dev lists, but created a separate user list (it seems that xmlrpc-user was only an alias for xmlrpc-dev, and the other subprojects never had a user list), I think that the subscribers who are in that case should take advantage of this and move to this new user list.
