You seem to have a very strict definition of "vibrant". The way I look at it:
- Perl is still maintained For my rather modest requirements that is "vibrant" - and I expect that to continue for some time... And there is still Perl-code around that I expect will still last for a long time, simply because rewriting that would mean reverse-engineering a lot of very old and poorly documented code which nobody wants to do. But true - those are only some niches. So yes - depressingly the "future" seems to be rather bleak...
