In the Wiccle World, there is nothing quite like a Round-Table of discussion of the future road-map as we take each update & release a step closer to the leading edge of Content Management Systems. Moving past this we will be creating a space where the name CMS will not fit in any more as both systems expand beyond scope of the latest trends, into setting new trends. So here is a sneak peek into our Wiccle World..
iWiccle is the personnel edition of Wiccle, while Wiccle is targeted for the creation of new or existing online businesses. iWiccle is Open Source, while Wiccle is commercial but you will get the full Source of Wiccle, ability to change, mod, etc as iWiccle but cannot re-release for profit or non-profit of the program / parts of the scripts. The same model is true for most Open Source Commercial scripts but we are drawing a fine line to make sure it is clear where others would not be so clear on. Example: You are a Web Design Company looking to use Wiccle for creating websites for your clients. Yes you can use Wiccle as many times as you want for your client / change the code / add mods / anything you want, and all you need to do is put in a new Licence Key for each domain. Wiccle will be bundled with a number of Licence keys, which will be announced near the release of version 1.0.
iWiccle & Wiccle are standalone platforms from each other. The powerful core of Wiccle is being used for iWiccle and as time moves on, many features found in Wiccle but not in iWiccle, will be passed into iWiccle as Wiccle gains new powerful features. We will be very careful to strike a good balance between both platforms. 
iWiccle is as important to us as Wiccle is, we will be pushing iWiccle to become a leading Community Content Management System over the coming months in making it easier to use, touch screen controls in the Builder, new features including full VPS support with Media functions which we are calling iWiccle E. We will be adding hundreds of new functions both major & minor over the coming months. All of this is free, no hidden costs, very straight forward.

The true power of Wiccle is not the ability to create any one type of website as examples given above but to be able to “combine” them to create something that has not yet surfaced / fresh designs. With this, any Wiccle member can create a website matching, if not surpassing any leading website in functions or raw power. This should give you all the tools you will ever need for your website creation but if that was not enough, Wiccle allows the importing of 3rd party programs. If you want to use another “Forums” program, just plug it in, no need to use the Wiccle forums. We will be adding more 3rd party programs where allowed and when we can. For Web programmers, Wiccle will make it easy to plug in these programs that we have yet to support.
