You might not realize it hanging around on HN, but a huge portion -- dare I say a majority -- of developers don't give a hoot about this.
New languages don't matter. They've already seen a bunch. Their employers aren't interested.
New frameworks especially don't matter. If they ignore the new frameworks, 90% of them will be gone in three years, and most of what's left that's useful will be pulled into .NET or Java.
