Last report in Sweden is that we need more IT-staff, developers of all sorts. In the coming few years there is a report that the banks will need ~30% more IT employees.

I think there will be a need for more programmers of different types of skills for many years to come and it also looks like IT-jobs are becoming one of the largest areas for employment. Maybe one day it will shrink but I can not see that on the horizon.

A government or industry report may state a "need" for 30% more IT workers, but whether they'll be willing to pay their salaries are two different things. For example, when reponding to a survey by a domestic workers union, half of all households may report they need a live-in nanny to help with the chores and children, but only a small percentage would be able or willing to actually pay for one.
