It's Steven Schveighoffer, but it's far from ready, since he hasn't had a lot of time to work on it of late. He put up an initial version for feedback a few weeks back, and one of the main points of feedback (which Walter felt very strongly about) was that it needed to be compatible with the current std.stdio rather than having a whole new API, so while it may do new stuff and have a better implementation, most (all?) of the stuff using the current std.stdio will continue to work with the new one whenever it's finished. - Jonathan M Davis
