I think most people is missing are missing the point. The issue isn't whether PHP, Python, Ruby or Perl are better as of today, but if we are missing something that is even more aligned to web development. For the past few years PHP has been the language of choice for many many programmers because as its name imply, it "pre processes hypertext" (and words actually matter). Do we need some new kind of language (not framework) that understands caching, REST, CRUD, templating, asynchronous calls the way we need it on the web of today (and the near future)?

I guess nobody here is calling for a new language to rule them all, or for a champion framework. I guess as hackers the least we can do is DO NOT assume that what we have today is what we'll need tomorrow.

I don't know if there's an easy answer to the dilemma (or if your arguments are solid enough) but it makes me think. Thanks for bringing this up.
