I see four questions in your node:
Without anything about your background, requirements for your project, constraints, prerequisites, how can you expect anybody to give a meaningful answer to 1. and 2.? Should I buy car A or car B? Any salesperson of A will say "A", any salesperson f B will say "B". Does that tell you anything? Don't you think you'd need to go a bit further as in "it shouldn't cost more than X, it should be fuel efficient at least as Y, you shouldn't need a drivers license for it, etc. etc.". As to 3., I think you can safely say that there are a lot of people developing and using Perl on a day-to-day basis. Would you consider Apache dead because there haven't been that many new versions out lately? As to 4., I think only Larry Wall will be able to answer that conclusively. Meanwhile, you better check out his articles on Perl.com and try to grok the Apocalypses as well as Damian's Exegesi. Hope this helps. Liz
