What's the deal with this page?

http://vsdemo.defyallchallenges.com/

At the bottom it says:

and start thinking about your demo ideas now!"

I've been monitoring it for months now and it's not changed at all.
Did Microsoft forget about it or something?  Is the contest ongoing or
did they forget about the contest too?

They're probably waiting until the official VS.

They're probably waiting until the official VS.Net 2008 launch party
timeframe, which is sometime towards the end of the month if I remember
correctly.

Looks like they finally updated it. Not sure what to make of it.

Looks like they finally updated it.  Not sure what to make of it.
Anyone know what it is?  The page that was up for months use to say
there'd be a contest... I'm assuming a coding contest or possibly a
video demo contest, which are the only reasons I've been monitoring
it.  Looks like there's absolutely zero content up there now... just a
few really odd UI items and short videos that I'm not sure what to
make of... and some bizzare, kindergarden-ish type of "drag our
premade clips and sounds to make your own video" UI.  Surely this
can't be aimed at developers? or any over the age of 10?

I can't figure out:
- who their target audience is.
- what the site is for.
- when, where, what, who, how, and if - about the coding contest?

Am I missing something??  What's the purpose of this site and is there
or is there not a contest?

The last timeframe won't work because while it starts at 4:30pm the quickest way (if any) to make sure the first timeframe satisfies one or more of the other timeframes. There has
