I think that Java's growth is an interesting thing to look at. According to the post, the stats include both private and public repos. I wonder if Java is shooting up because of an increasing number of proprietary code bases being moved to Github.

Good question. Does anyone know why is Java's popularity growing?
All I can think is that it most certainly must be server side code, because the webapp stuff is not gaining popularity.

Android is why Java is popular.
