development is different then dependencies... So erlang is a dependency for 
rabbit, but no one in openstack currently writes anything in erlang. zookeeper 
would be a dependency, not a target for development....

that being said, openstack at present doesn't have any hard dependencies on 
java, this brings up a new one.

And currently at least for 3 of our clouds, we don't have java installed on any 
of them, so it is an additional dependency. So I know there are clouds out 
there that would consider it a new dep.

Thanks,
Kevin

That's a quite useful datapoint to collect in surveys: How many
languages are your components/apps written in?
I believe most "serious" production deployments already run Java apps,
anyway, for other reasons. I'd wager that basically Erlang and Java are
already sunk, in most deployments, in terms of languages, already. It's
the cost of operation.
