The initiative has been pioneered by Alexandre Zapolsky (http://www.redherring.com/Article.aspx?a=20043&he d=Parlez-Vous+Linux%3f+), CEO of a French open source company that recently bagged a contract from the French government to implement open source within the Ministry of Finance.

Nonetheless, the authors say it is the most comprehensive study of personal wealth ever undertaken.
