"Important" usually refers to mindshare, not installed numbers. Mailing list, IRC, and blog traffic are usually pretty good indicators. By these measures, Ruby on Rails has become very important in the past 6 months. But, if you want production sites, check out basecamphq.com or the rubyonrails.com homepage for more.

If importance only depended on installed copies then SPICE would be a non-starter. In reality, SPICE was one of the more influential programs to come out of the last 3 decades.
