Mark Shuttleworth is a very wealthy man who is supporting the development of Ubuntu. His wealth came from Linux and Python I believe. He was the second civilian to visit the International Space Station, travelling on a Russian Soyuz, for which he paid 20 million American dollars. If you want to know more look at the Ubuntu web site or, if you wish, I may be able to find you some more references. Norman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
