The NYTimes has an article about
Ubuntu<http://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/11/business/11ubuntu.html?scp=1&sq=shuttleworth&st=cse>
 :

"In December, hundreds of these controversial software developers gathered
for one week at the
Google<http://topics.nytimes.com/top/news/business/companies/google_inc/index.html?inline=nyt-org>headquarters
in Mountain View, Calif. They came from all over the world, sporting many of
the usual signs of software mercenaries: jeans, ponytails, unruly facial
hair and bloodshot eyes. ... All the fuss at the meeting centered on
something called Ubuntu and a man named Mark Shuttleworth, the charismatic
35-year-old billionaire from South Africa who functions as the spiritual and
financial leader of this coding clan."
