I haven't heard about the community shrinking, but your comments
about its status as a language are correct. And they are applicable to
all other languages as well. I will tell you, though, that at my
university, we've recently switched from using mainly C/C++ in our courses
to using mainly Java. So at least here we will be producing lots of CS
grads with Java knowledge and experience.
