Kvetch, kvetch, kvetch.

I have no idea whether the list is exhaustive. Neither do you.
It contains _a_ list of those projects of which I am aware. Can
you make a list of all the projects in other languages? Of course
not! Most companies would think it utterly uninteresting (or
maybe proprietary) what language they used. Only language evangelists
give a sh*t anyway (I can say that - I are one.)
