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.

"AR Facade" is an "augmented reality" game, a genre that mixes a
virtual world with physical reality. At the College of Computing at
Georgia Tech where "AR Facade" was created, researchers are using the
technology to create "interactive dramas." The games are "somewhere
between a movie and a video game," said Steven Dow, a Ph.D. student in
Georgia Tech's human-centered computing program.
