My main issue with this report is that it gives all figures without any context:
- $500K in the foundation. Is this a lot or not, compared to other foundations? Is this more or less than the previous year/last decade?
- 6 developers. Again, what does this figure mean?
- "many users still use old versions" -- again, at which % should the community be worried?
The only meaningful info I found was the chart showing that after 7.0, its popularity stopped falling (though, the chart should have been rendered as stacked to see the full sum of downloads).
Regarding the language, I guess people get their job done with it, but the code in the presentation makes an impression that it's the same hassle as back in 2010 (v 5.3) when I quit using it. (Used it since 1999.)
