No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

Full Summary:

"If someone walked up to you at a cocktail party, stared at you intensely, then simply walked away, you would feel confused and probably offended," says Ph.D. candidate Sarita Yardi (IC).
