UML is big, which diagrams are most important?

Class, Sequence and State (and to a lesser degree Component) diagrams seems to be most widely used.

There are a lot of interesting Eclipse projects for building models from C, Java and other languages, but getting diagrams out of this models can be a pain.

It should probably be easiest to start with Class diagram, since most of it's functions are already implemented in ECore support, which is basically a subset of most commonly used Class diagram features.

Isn't this closed with ECore support?

The UML2 model is not the same as Ecore, although they have many similarities and can share code.

I would say, that ECore diagram is only partially covering UML Class diagram (as ECore itself is a subset of UML Class diagram).

What I would think will benefit users more is a support for sequence/state machine diagrams, as they are generally much harder to lay out nicely.

Also, seeing support for use case and activity diagrams would be nice,
