Ahem! Mono is not really a programming language, it's a CIL runtime.

After some thought, I've removed Mono and added C#.

I am disagree with C#. C# is a good programming language but it belong to most important enemy of Opensource and linux, so why we most vote for it.

C99 :-)

Although I often find myself working in many languages during the year it's hard to beat standard C in my book.

Is there a way to vote, without adding comments.? Also, its better to list down all the programming languages available, so that people who likes obscure languages can also vote.

What do you mean? All you need to do is pick an option from the poll.
