The CASP9 organizers have recently released the first Refinement targets:
http://predictioncenter.org/casp9/targetlist.cgi?view=refinement
According to the CASP9 timetable (http://predictioncenter.org/casp9/#timetable)
the "prediction season will end not later than July 31. Refinement experiment will end not later than August 20."
So, only 1 more month of prediction puzzles and then the only remaining CASP puzzles will be refinement ones: where the CASP organizers give us a prediction which is close to the native to refine.
(The starting models for the Refinement category are predictions that were submitted by a server or human group for a past target that has already expired).
Because CASP9 has already released Refinement puzzles (that are due in the next few weeks) we will try to space them out for you so that there is no more than 5 total CASP9 puzzles up at a time and no 2 puzzles expire on the same day.
Each refinement puzzle will be up for 5 days so that we can space them out.
