Bob Young founded Lulu.com, the ebooks and print books company, before Red Hat, IIRC. That was an early pioneering ebook and self-publishing company startup, I think.

Lulu.com was founded in 2002 after Bob Young left Red Hat.

Looked up Bob Young on Google:

and it seems he also was a co-founder of Linux Journal! Didn't know. Cool. His work has had quite an impact.
