I wonder if that's in order? If so, in my experience they have PHP and Perl way too low for IT. For software developers, yes, I would agree that's probably correct, but for generic IT overall, I think PHP and Perl both would move above all the C-stuff.

If it's actually in some arbitrary order and not in what they consider the most popular to least, then I basically agree with that list.

It does appear that, but they specifically say IT Industry, which is a LOT larger than just software developers.

Writers have a tendency to not look that far ahead, as Im an editor at two sites and we have discussions about issues like this all the time.
