Announced by the company that's been setting up private stays on the ISS. They also want to do a private spacewalk for pay by 2009 if I rememebr correctly. It's in the article anyways.
That's a good bit more expensive than I would've been expecting especially when they say they're using existing Soyuz modules to do it. At that cost one wonders if they might be better off bumping the price up a few million and including a trip to the moon's surface too.

Probably because it'd cost more than a few extra million. The Soyuz was built for circumlunar missions.

Yes, they're using Russian equipment to accomplish the trip. Soyuz is the Russian's manned spacecraft.
