The count-down clock is ticking and we are getting ready for the releases..
Once the count-down clock has reached it's end, the first releases out of the bag is:
- New Wiccle.com Site!
- Wiccle Demo
Following quickly after these two releases is:
- Wiccle Web Builder - Version 1.0
A few days next is:
- First Wiccle Customers Showcase of their brand new Websites as designed by ourselves with our special offer with the Wiccle Indie Licence
- Next Week including more Wiccle Websites
- And the week of next, is - iWiccle v1.20 release! Followed with more Wiccle Websites.
Before the year is out, Wiccle v1.0 will get it's first update with a whole range of new add-ons + any fixes found with v1.0. Now that we have our two key products out in the public domain, we can focus more on the small add-ons, improvements around the current modules & gear up both platforms with a huge range of options, features, important framework improvements for our programming members, making the platforms a dream to work with for graphic artists, and still allowing the non-skilled in web development / graphic design to produce the same high-end results within a short space of time through our Admin / Builder modes.
We need your support at this early stage and thanks to all our current members who have been helping us over the last few months! You are the real stars in our eyes and we want to help build your success on the web with iWiccle CMS Community Builder & Wiccle Web Builder!!

You can be sure of that Markus!
An interesting take on this is, with your years of high level web / software development experienced and my own high level game development experienced .. the Web industry landscape is going to change with our blends of pushing past barriers for our members with these platforms!
While others come from the same static backgrounds in delivering the same tool sets, we are setting out to provide a new experience with the help of our members who do have a direct impact on the future as we have shown so far with iWiccle requests over the last few months.

We've had some delay owing to ongoing pre-release custom works. I'm in the middle of wrapping up the last loose ends of Wiccle.com #2 and it'll be rolled online in the upcoming hours. Thanks for your patience. =)

Good morning / evening everyone!
It's 6:25 AM my time, and while the amount of coffee in my veins might keep me going for a while more, it's a long day ahead (starting 9:30 with Keith to wrap up one of those pre-sales Wiccle custom sites -- a boostore), so I'm going to stop grinding this for a couple of hours and get back to it after the morning meet.
Integration and conversion of content from the old site is taking a bit longer than I had anticipated, but hey, this seems to be the status quo with my projects... Setting insane deadlines and wrapping them up with a minor delay is still a lot faster than setting long deadlines and kicking back! =)
Keep posting etc. as usual -- I will put a lid on posting just before the upgrade is rolled out to ensure last minute data gets entered into the last phase of site conversion. The new website is really a lot smoother than the current one!
Regards, Markus

I'm sure ya's are all working hard behind the scenes to get your great work visible to the community.
Looking forward to seeing it all working with the latest Wiccle bells and whistles, whenever it's ready. I'd much rather see something stable and working than a rush job to meet deadlines.
You will sleep well tonight after all them long hours

Hi Gibby,
Sorry --- I've been quite swamped with custom works, rolling out a bookstore tomorrow. Wiccle eCommerce gained much from that! Tomorrow noon I'm resuming full Wiccle.com wrapup work, which I hope will be completed for the following day. I still have a few pages of text to produce, some custom graphics to wrap up, and slight cleanup -- all well in a day's work. Expect to hear details within 24 hours from now.
Regards, Markus
P.S. Here's a little something to brighten up the forums, the upgrade pending -- our new iWiccle boxed graphic, one among many to add a unique touch and feel to everything that's brewing and coming very soon!

My pleasure, gibby. I like your avatar --- looks a lot like mine! 
Here's a sample of what we're wrapping up, showing the Wiccle Builder in action once again...

And another eCommerce site that's wrapped up for tomorrow morning... We'll be listing them in a showcase later on, and you'll be happy to know that 90% of the custom work that goes into these sites also improve and expand the core. I have a dev setup where the custom sites we work on all run in a single filesystem with isolated site-specific extensions, in a Mother Wiccle of sorts if you will. So whenever you hear us working on custom sites, you know Wiccle and iWiccle are growing. There's no stopping now!
Next update on wiccle.com status tomorrow noon, need to see how much I can shovel away tonight and in the morning, and what the state of affairs is. It's a bit hectic right now at the crunching department!

So things are more or less wrapped up with custom stuff until next week, and the weekend will see Wiccle.com coming up in grand style. You'll be the first to know when we get nearer to the moment, I'm around. (The new Wiccle.com will have a little Wiccle twitter thingy for mini-news and updates on what's going on to help bring focus for those who are interested in the progress.

We will be doing a full overview of the new Wiccle.com by tomorrow noon Euro time, and will then make whichever last minute content changes if necessary, and go live as soon as that's all cleared up. It's coming allright.

Just noticed that the joycegalway.com site is up and running -
Guys, you have done yourselves proud!!!! - and you have done Wiccle justice!
The only criticism I have, and this has nothing to do with Wiccle or the design - it's more for the folks at joycegalway - the HOTMAIL email address looks very amateurish and does nothing to enhance the site or the company (in terms of maturity, credibility, etc). I really believe it severely let's you down (sorry)!
Otherwise, a very good looking and professional site.

Quite so! It's coming up for tomorrow. Frankly he old site is beginning to look hideous in comparison, so we haven't been around here that much, and haven't posted actual site previews to not cause the same effect in everyone else! =)
And you need one of these...

I mean to say, your own virtual license card! Next you can work towards the gold card. =)

I need to get these auto-generated with the right details and sent out with license registrations...
