For example, boost-users has a posting rate nearly a third that of before 2011.
Regarding this, my personal (weakly substantiated) perception is that people are migrating to sexier forums such as stackoverflow to get the same help. For instance, 5-6 years back I could get about 1 question a week about Boost.MultiIndex on the users list. Now it's like 1 question every 3 months here, but 1-2 a week in stackoverflow instead. Blame the crude interface a mailing list provides, registration entry barriers etc.
A very solid point. I'll include that in my talk actually.
Have you measured the level of Boost *usage* (even if via some proxy like lib downloads, unreliable as this is)? It could be the case that usage remains strong and it is only contribution that has dropped.
