What Cyclone3 is
We developed our own CMS (Content Management System) back in 1999. Since then interest has been growing in use of CMSs for both large and small businesses. Thanks to Cyclone3 we have been able to produce on-line project for our clients who now use it to managing their portals. The sites vary in size - from small about 20-page sites to multilingual sites with thousands of pages and millions of multimedia items.
Cyclone3 is a feature-rich web application framework with management tools without being difficult to use. It is the perfect web-partner for businesses which wish to have an effective web presence, keeping their customers up to date. The search engine friendliness of the code used in the CMS is also worth attention with many of our sites receive many hundreds of visits a day.
What this is All About
Over the coming month we are planning to create partnerships with organizations and individuals, in promoting and marketing our CMS, web development (web design, HTML, CSS, Flash) and XUL/PERL development (perl library, XUL, JavaScript).
So why are we publishing this notice? Can't you just download the source code, just like any other open-source project and play? Of course you can! This is about proactive support, we encourage you to download and run Cyclone3, we can build you a blog on Cyclone3, host your open-source project or even support you if you decide to join the project.
How can I Benefit? What do I Get?
As it was already stated: You get more than source code. You can get get tutoring from the authors, on-line help, web hosting, presentation on the project web-site, a blog, cross-site links to your project page, publicity, expertise and new business options, if you decide to sub-contract Cyclone3-based projects.
