Well, that trend may be stalling.

I would like to as well actually.
One reason I have been paying more atention to Go and D among others, is
that even though I admire all the advantages of the current VM
environments, I also am starting to miss the times of native
compilation, being old enough to still remember Z80 assembly.
Recently I tried to call for attention to our local team that alongside
JVM and .Net projects, we could tackle some C++. I even gave WinRT,
iPhone, Facebook's PHP->C++ compiler, Qt and Android NDK as examples.
The guy's response was 'Oh I though C++ was no longer relevant', and the
matter was closed.
