I wouldn't know, from google groups it looks like he's been gone a year http://groups.google.com/group/comp.databases.ibm-db2/browse_thread/thread/ca99735e693057be/00db8b985342e029#00db8b985342e029

But just googling his name looks more recent: https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/mydeveloperworks/blogs/SQLTips4DB2LUW/?lang=en Link to there from his twitter, too. Maybe he's off celebrating some Russian new year :-)
