I'll take the results at face value. I know plenty of coders who are motivated solely by income, and they get much bigger contract rates in the J2EE market. The fact is, a lot of beginners and hobbyists have entered the "P" market (more so in the PHP and trivial Perl arena), and they drive down the rates. Increasingly script language web development is going overseas to the lowest bidders on the reverse auction sites - and they're hard to compete with if you're currency doesn't compete well with Eastern Europe/Asia. So consequently, a lot of my peers stick with the so-called enterprise languages to protect their income.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
