Also no Perl. I know Perl is a horror to parse and isn't cool any more, but, sheesh, it's far more widely used than *Haskell*. I don't know what their choice of languages to index is determined by, but it clearly isn't volume of available code (or, to be frank, utility).

I *knew* there was an important language I was forgetting about. Perl, yes, of course. My apologies to the Perl community :)

"Forgetting about Perl..." Hey - maybe this will become a trend!
