You can also simplify it further, by connecting line 3 (--->>3) directly to RESET and eliminate the BC547 transistor(Q2) and R1&R2.
The transistor is just an invertor, and you need configure PonyProg to invert RESET signal.
I am using this simplified - only resistors and diodes - circuit since 2004, but only on AVR microcontrollers.
