I'm interested in learning about this but not necessarily interested in joining your chat, so I went looking for your name and came across several same-named things.

Are you related to any of these other Phoenix CMSs?

If not, it seems you should have picked a less overloaded name. There are a few others too.

Would be useful if you could elaborate on the things you think are broken with WordPress.

I happen to think WordPress will be dethroned by products that cater to specific niches better. A good case in point is in real estate where it is widely used but clearly not the best:

I would recommend reposting this as a Show HN (with your github link or whatever you use to host this project), as posts with links tend to get more visibility. Also, it makes more sense for a post that is showing HN what you have made.

Example: "Show HN: PhoenixCDN"

Oops, I said cdn instead of cms.
