Great link. I remember him saying something to the effect of libraries not mattering in his decision to use Common Lisp for Viaweb, but that's not the same thing as him saying that they're unimportant for language adoption. So I guess my memory is inaccurate. Where there is disagreement is that most CTO's are afraid to adopt "weird" languages out of library FUD, which PG asserts doesn't matter. On that, I think PG is right.
