We purchased CIX in the knowledge that it has had a tremendously long and successful history, but we felt that it had failed to keep up with the demands of the user base or indeed changes in technology and customer habits. To give new and existing users an insight into what we have planned for the next 12 months here is an overall aim to what we aim to achieve. This is by no means a complete or detailed list, but should help show that we're very much committed to delivering a bright future for CIX and CIXen. We very much welcome any constructive ideas and suggestions either via email or through the CIX Development forum.
