You might understand, that many people feel quite reluctant to send an email to 
a list that goes to hundreds of people instead of the relatively small amount 
of people that actually has a real interest in the project.
The threshold for asking a question or sharing some feedback is higher. So 
instead of sending a mail, a lot of these discussions are currently just 
happening in our irc channel where people cannot easily read up on a discussion 
at all. - I don't think that's something you would be arguing for in favor. You 
used to be in #qtwebengine yourself as well some time ago. That is the "secret 
place" where the information is currently going.
Also, if you consider the current webkit-qt ML spam, then you would probably 
not want that on the dev ML either.

But it does not make sense to reason about traffic on qtwebkit. These are 
separate projects and we do obviously not discuss qtwebengine on the qtwebkit 
mailing list. Because there you would not expect it for sure.
