Regarding PHP, Facecrook use it and their traffic is massive. Granted they 
had to invent HipHop to help PHP along, but is OpenNIC expecting to get that

Just the fact that someone like Warner Brothers uses Plone is nough to make 
me wonder, the music and film industry isn't known for it's grasp on 
technology!
