It would be for personal projects where it's just me and nobody 
else. I can't tell others to invest a bunch of (very scarce) time 
in a language unless they'll be able to use it in the future. 
Moreover, we sometimes have to return to the code in five years, 
and the profession is moving to a requirement to share our code 
publicly, so the time horizon is very long.

I'm not going to start yet another discussion of all of the 
related concerns. It's just not an option to use a language 
professionally when it's reached the point that the lack of 
manpower allows something like this to happen.

That's what has me worried. The volunteer hours dry up, releases 
slip, and then a year or two later the project is on life support.
