See the graph at

For some time, I’ve been watching the three combinations  
ruby + rails,  
ruby + developer,  
java + hibernate + tomcat  
using the [www.indeed.com](http://www.indeed.com) job-trend grapher.  
They have (after a long climb), finally reached parity.

Of course, you can pick different combinations and get entirely  
different results.

So, what does it tell us? Tomcat going out of fashion?
