Yes, they're now trying to push Ubuntu in the server market. I have no idea just how minuscule their "market share" is in that regard, but I imagine it's pretty small. Most people who really want a F/LOSS server have gone with Debian. Those who are more pragmatic use SLES or RHEL. Until someone in the Ubuntu community feels strongly enough to put the time and effort in (and I know all too well, that is a *lot* of time and effort), there won't be a version for the mainframe. If there *is* someone out there, reading this, that feels that strongly, there are a couple of options open to you for doing the build on real mainframe hardware. It doesn't have to be all cross-compiles, or Hercules.
