Surveys are interesting, but caution must be used in looking at the results. A lot of the analysis on what to learn depends on the developer's background, location, industry, age, etc. For example, someone nearing retirement would look at it differently than a 30 year old person. Someone in RTP, SV, NYC, Austin, or Boston would look at it differently than someone in Montana or Tulsa. If all you know is web development the answer might be different than someone with a deep CS education.
I guess if I had to pick one, I would move to Python or some functional language like Clojure. (Wait, that's not just one.) If all I was after is money, I might look at moving to a job as a DBA or moving into the MS space as those are advertised a lot. While I plan on staying with CF, I'm also learning a lot of other things since that is what developers do. ---- John M Bliss <[email protected]> wrote: > > P.S.
