Isn't there already a Unix text editor of the same name? <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_(text_editor)" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico_(text_editor)</a><p>Maybe this is deliberate, from "Picos [sic] makes creating and maintaining a website as simple as editing text files" but I don't think having the exact same name is a good thing. Maybe a variation?
I love this concept, we could use more approachable static-file-cms solutions for non-technicals.<p>Without getting too far into a review/investigation, I do feel like a different name would be appropriate. It's already a language and a text-editor, doesn't that just add confusion?
There is clearly a niche for these small "CMS" tools, but let's be real about what these CMSes are generally <i>not</i> offering: User authentication, localization, custom field indexing, internal search...<p>Yes, it "manages content", thus is technically a "CMS". But at the level of many of these tools, so is my file system. At best, these tools are useful automated markdown renderers.
Are there any example sites up? I have LAMP on my Windows box but meh - I don't know that I want to go through the steps to get Pico up and running until I see it in action.
