Go - it has just mirror on github for not so long - not
interesting much
Thanks! Those were interesting too.
So the clear growth in "open source enthusiasm" happend:
- Crystal: first half 2015
- Rust: 2013-first half 2015
- Nim: around 2014/2015
- D: no change
But all of them might taper off to something stable in last half
of 2015? Maybe Swift will steal the thunder from all.
It seems that all languages gain some momentum in 2013 - maybe
also due to github popularity?
Hm. Maybe there was a change in user interface that made the star
functionality more visible. If that is the case then D might have
been stable for a long time.
