    You could try to post a comment to one of his questions. Or check his profile for some other contact information.

  • You might also consider simply posting a new question on Ask Ubuntu, asking for the information you want to know. If this user is interested in the topic and sees the question, s/he might answer it! (And even if not, someone else might be able to.)

You don't. There is no PM functionality.

However you can earn the commenting privilege (just 50 rep) and then you can leave a comment on their answer. Or you can go through their profile and see if they've left any contact information.

    @Sergiu: it is status by design and policy . Their reason is this is not a social network website
