Why "Constantine"?

I was recently wondering if there's anything behind the name Constantine, chosen for Fedora 12. I've read that some previous versions were named Moonshine, Werewolf, Sulphur, Cambridge and Leonidas. The former 4 seem to have been named kinda randomly, since the words are common, so I don't think there are many interesting things to say about them. Leonidas, though, was a king, and we (mostly) all know who he was.

But what about Constantine? I know about the byzantine Emperor Constantine, but I'm not quite sure Fedora 12 was given his name specifically. Does it reference another Constantine?

All the best!
