Listing very old sites which may have still some perl fragments somewhere in there infrastructure doesn't mean perl isn't dead. I don't know of any major sites written in perl today. Also, i thought slashdot used perl a long time ago but have already written an new system, but i may remember that wrong... http://duartes.org/gustavo/blog/post/programming-language-jobs-and-trends http://duartes.org/gustavo/blog/post/programming-language-jo... has some interesting trends. From what i see there, i'd say perl is probably still alive but slowly dying. My hopes have been on parrot for perl. But after reading about the new perl version and its ridiculous new "features", i am convinced that perl will die when parrot breaks module compatibility with cpan, because noone will port modules, yet care for the new perl.
