At least Bob is still with us.
I wonder who is the new "owner" of CP.

What has 'giving up of participating' in active day-to-day business has to do with ownership?

I'm still too much of a n00b here to know the meaning and consequence of this on CP. If he leaves, then what happens?

Is the site going to be sold to some people who don't "get" the Code Project ethos, and they try to turn it into a stack overflow clone?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

Certainly hope not, as that would indeed suck.

if it goes stack overflow, it's dead. That place seems to be a magnet for pricks.

SO is okay for getting answers, but it sure isn't the place for asking questions. Unless you're already part of the clique.
That's no way to run a web site.

completely agree with you. Ask a question, and you'll get 14 comments and 5 arguments about how the question has already been answered and why it hasn't. It's like having an entire conference room full of women dealing with "that time" of the month or pre-menopause.
Don't jump my case, I've gone through six daughters and one wife I've been married to for 46 years. I know what I'm talking about. It's okay, but I think the analogy fits to SO.

Yeah I found out from linked in. I learned to program on Code project, in 1999I bought books then asked questions here as I started with MFC (remember that?) . I worked for CP for a good year I think, early in my move to working from home for overseas companies. I drifted away from CP over time, I don't have questions any more and the questions here got ridiculous. But I still have a soft spot for the place

Sure, CodeProject is not down, but Chris leaving is quite a news.
If you're feeling concerned, then I believe that it's justified. If history repeats itself, then I can tell you about it after years of past experience: a transfer of ownership or leadership can thoroughly destroy an online community. I've seen it happen. Take such events seriously.
