Help to make Cotonti know in the CMS world

Anyone can help Cotonti Project by
  • Helping people on forums
  • Writing good articles for docs
  • Making new plugins, skins and porting old ones from LDU, Seditio and other engines
  • Making other add-ons and translating it to more languages
  • Sharing reasonable ideas

But another important thing is to make Cotonti known on the web. Seditio is known quite good, although it is not very popular compared to other engines. We don't pursue the highest popularity, but we still want Cotonti to get known to more people, who could join the stream and help improving it.

We need to work on publicity to promote Cotonti on popular sites, catalogs and social bookmarks. First of all, adding Cotonti to Wikipedia and Wikipedia CMS List would be great. Then such catalogs as HotScripts are very important too. And in the XXI century we should not ignore social bookmarking (like delicious) and fan clubs in social networks (like FaceBook).

So, let's make people know about Cotonti!
May the Source be with you!

Cotonti has been added to the CMS list. Now it just needs an actual page. I'll chop out bits from the Seditio wiki to get things going and someone with more wikipedia abilities than I can perhaps fill in the rest.

Cotonti Wikipedia Page

Yeah basic. Do this great CMS justice and make it prettyful someone.

I will try help promote cotoni as much as possible for you guys.

Would help out with plugins etc, but my coding sucks. I could do some skin's but then again my coding sucks :P



As for social bookmarking, why not add book mark buttons ( like these http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php ) to all the pages.

I remember the fiasco with the Seditio page. I should have figured it would.

Live and learn right? Loving Cotonti thus far. Thanks everyone!
