For the first part, see "How to add items in popup menu?" (from justinmreina) for more on adding an entry to a menu.

Note the second part of this answer is for package explorer.

For project explorer, the location uri would be:

menu:common.new.menu?after=new

(Example, but for package explorer)

Something like (if you follow this thread):

    <extension point="org.eclipse.ui.menus">
        <menuContribution locationURI="menu:new?after=myGroup1">
            <command
                commandId="com.mycpy.myproject.ui.pluginXX.commands.openNewWizard"
                disabledIcon="icons/disabled/new.gif"
                icon="icons/enabled/new.gif"
                id="com.mycpy.myproject.ui.pluginXX.menus.openNewWizard"
                label="PluginXX"
                tooltip="PluginXX"
                mnemonic="XX">
            </command>
        </menuContribution>
    </extension>

I would use as locationuri:

menu:new?after=additions

(no need to define a custom group here)
