Where is that guy 20-40? May be he is a new capitan?  :D

You are obviously joking.  8)

See, the problem with with Danny Smith stepping back is not that they lost some random fool that can easily be replaced with an even bigger fool.
They lost someone who knows what he is doing, someone who has a lot of knowledge and years of experience in maintaining such a project. A captain who has been holding a steady course through the sea of naysayers, wiseacres and grudgers. And, his course was a good one. Maybe not the fastest one, but the safest. During all the years, MinGW has never failed me.

Coming back to your original question "Where is that guy 20-40": He is not welcome here any more.

Biplab:
They have assigned a new maintainer.

Judging by context, I believe Keith was asking Chris to be the new maintainer for libmingwex, but not for MinGW/GCC.
