I thought Perl instructors might appreciate this bit of news 
mentioned on perlmonks.org

Every two years the german computer magazine iX starts a questionaire 
on the usage of operating systems, databases and programming 
languages.

In the last six years, Perl has become the top used language, leading 
closely before Java.  In big companies (>1000) it's even stronger!

And that's Perl 5, I won't imagine what's going on with Perl 6! :-)

The article is in German 
(http://www.heise.de/ix/artikel/2002/11/012/), if you don't 
understand, the Fish (http://babelfish.altavista.com) may help.
