Im not sure about the contract positions but this is traditionally the
time of the year when people decide its time for a change, its endemic to
all other types of industries not just the software industry. 
And to alleviate your paranoia a little, a report I read last month said
software jobs were actually on the increase, rivalling the ever
hungry system administration job market.
