   While OT, I'd like to know why do you think so.  [I can think of some   
   reasons myself; I don't think by far that Java is perfect.]

   David had the full backing of his people.  I'm not so sure about C++.  It   
   would be interesting to somehow map out the C++ community and see where it   
   is used the most and what users think about it (in particular, why do they   
   use C++ -- performance, libraries, existence on exotic platforms, etc.).   
   Are you aware of such recent survey?
