Not necessarily; it shows that the count of monthly commits by open source developers is growing, which might be mostly thanks to relatively few dedicated committers rather than an overall increase in the population. Another interesing point is that the gap with PHP is narrowing too: http://www.ohloh.net/languages/compare?measure=commits&percent=&l0=perl&l1=php&l2=python&l3=-1&l4=-1&commit=Update George -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
