JavaEE Developer Survey Results From ZeroTurnaround

ZeroTurnaround have published the latest version of their developer survey, from a total of 1027 participants. Here are some of the highlights from the resuts of the survey.

I always thought that by still using Ant, I was in the minority, with most people using Maven. While this is still true, according the survey, the difference isn't as much as I expected:

In terms of Java frameworks, Spring and Hibernate remain to be way ahead of the rest: 

So it seems that the core Java developer toolset remains the same: Eclipse as an IDE, Maven/Ant for building and Spring/Hibernate on the server side. Will it ever be possible to know these giants of the Java community off their top spot?
