"Contact the user" is generally a first step when reporting an issue
to DWG.  So, I'm guessing that yes, Serge knows, but it is none of our
business.  :-)

I presume that the original reporter, and or DWG did so, and that the
response indicated that the user will not be part of the solution.  A
user not being part of the solution might indicate any one or more of
the following:
- no response
- email bounce or other communication failure
- response, but no longer interested in OSM
- response, but insufficient technical abilities to participate

None of these is necessarily an indictment of the user.  Things
happen.  Looks like DWG is just moving towards improvement of the
OpenStreetMap data, and matters regarding the user are not relevant.

Now, if the user was out of contact and is now contributing under a
new email and screen name, perhaps they will join in.  :-)
