Subject: [dba-Tech] The Open Source awards

Every year there is the Open Source awards. 

These awards are of particular interest for the computer industry because they show-case the future of development. This is not to say that these innovations will not be in all the industry but this is traditionally where the latest and greatest appears first.

The languages that code the Open Source evolution has been moving and expanding throughout the years and the following link attempts to graph that growth. Note: any graphic has a difficult challenge to accurately represent the market as the market has been expanding exponentially and a two dimensional graph is not truly representational.

If you are entering the development world Lisp may not be your best choice. ;-)
