Absolute legend, rocket ship human Mitchell Hashimoto. I still remember the excitement from Vagrant back in the day (which I think started it all). Here's the 1.0 announcement in 2012.

When can we expect the IPO to be after such a document is published?

After the JOBS act, roadshows can start 15 calendar days of publicly filing the registration statement with the SEC (before it was 21)

Roadshow may take 5-20 more days, so we may see them ring the bell by mid-December

Almost certainly

why he stepped down as CEO, then CTO and now IC?

If I had to guess:

1. Perhaps because he can.

2. Because being a CEO of a public company comes with a lot of rules around disclosure of material public information and equal access. It takes a special kind of person to disregard general consel and just shitpost on twitter with zero review while directly responsible to shareholders. I don't know what kind of safe harbor Elon thinks Twitter offers but I doubt it applies to Github code review.
