> Geeklog - A Content Management System with Security in mind.
> Geeklog - The Open Source CMS Solution.
> Geeklog - Manage your Content Securely.

> Initially, because of its claim ("ultimate", i.e. there can't be
> anything better - isn't that a tad presumptuous?). And these days,
when
> somebody heard this slogan, they would most likely associate it with
> some other system (starts with a 'W').
> 
> So we need something else.

> I think that instead of claiming something that we aren't, we should
go
> with something descriptive (which, I would hope, could also help
> overcome any aversion against The Name). So the slogan should express
> 
> - what it does
> - why you should choose it over something else
> 
> The ultimate [yep] plain and simple slogan for a CMS (IMHO, FWIW,
> anyway) would be
> 
>   "Software to build websites with"
> 
> But that one's already taken: Dries Buytaert used it in his 2009
> FrOSCon
> keynote (for Drupal, of course).
> 
> However, that's the general direction I think we should be going. So
> here are some lame attempts of my own:
> 
>   Publish your stuff. Securily.
>   Build a Website, securily.
>   Web Publishing - reliable and secure.
> 
> So for me, the answer to the 2 above questions is that "it's something
> that lets you build a website" and "it's safe, you won't get hacked
> every other week".
> 
> Yes, I realize "your stuff" is not really printable. It was just to
get
> me in the mood of thinking in a certain direction: This is an elevator
> pitch to the extreme. Or think of it as a Twitter post with 40-60
> characters max.
> 
> So, who can come up with something better?
> 
> And to make it more interesting, I'll throw in a t-shirt[1] for the
> winner
