Actually, from what I've seen, the Node.JS community definitely seems more...immature, I don't deal much with them, but the Perl community definitely seems much more mature. And I deal more with the Python community, and they've always been decent and welcoming to all. The whole Joyent-crucifying-Ben fiasco, and the fallout showed that even though they might be adults, and core contributors, they weren't actually very mature, or even seem like particularly nice people. Maybe that's just how it played out, and behind closed doors, they're super nice people, but it certainly didn't do them any favours posting that inflammatory blog post of theirs.
