Was wondering the same... AFAIK, he doesn't post no more on other guitar forums either (or "fora", as he likes to call them). Let's cross fingers... :-/
Sorry but nothing good to report. On 'the gear page' he was also last seen March 28/2020. He was also on seymour duncan forum but you need an account to access his profile there.

Yes. And in my memories, Pepe stands out as one of the rare Internet contributors using this latin plural. Hence my parenthesis as a salute to his personality.
Although I had the same thought than you about Milano, I'll keep crossing fingers.That's all we can do, anyway.
Out of the "fora" evoked in other posts, he hadn't posted either on strat-talk or mylespaul for one year.
He stated what looked like his real name, but there were two distinct names, on other forums. I searched those names for public notices, but came up with nothing. He is or was in his sixties, born in Argentina, got a classical music education there, then moved to Italy. He speaks or spoke six languages. He was highly active on a lot of forums, many not even having to do with guitar, and it abruptly ended on all of them in March of last year.

Thanks.
If possible , send me the names quoted, use a PM if you wish, IŽll look round in Argentina, *maybe* I can find some relatives and ask.
MAYBE he did what I did myself, disconnected everywhere, *specially* FB and WApp plus a lot of Forums at about the same date, when COVID confinement started.
Many did the same, expecting the "15 day lockdown" to end, instead of being perpetually renewed as it turned out.
Personally I got bored and restarted light activity in 2 or 3 Forums, no more, but to each his own.
That said, Covid is no longer something one sees in the News only, bullets are starting to fly near, lost 3 close friends in the last 2 Months only, all>60; my own 27 y.o. Daughter caught it and had a harsh time, still not fully recovered (gets out of breath when bicycling), so nothing can be discarded
