GPTC Agenda 02 Feb 2009

Finish up the discussion of the GPTC Agenda 20 Jan 2009.
From the referred previous agenda, two main questions should have the Committee's attention:

Can a set of criterion be established to define OWASP priorities in terms of projects available to be sponsored by our OWASP Members?
We need to set up as as possible a new season of code. How will it be done? FYI - Current SoC's status.

Proposed deliverables for meeting:

Agreement on how to close SoC 08
- are we going to create two types of 'Release', 'Beta' and 'Alpha' projects?
Agreement on strategy for next season of code
- role of Reviewers
- Objectives (for example alignment with https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Global_Projects_and_Tools_Committee)
- Initial Budget

Other items to discuss

Areas of 'ownership' for this committee
- Decision: New project template/table to be applied on all pages
- Projects page
Decision: Financially support committee members on expenses incurred while participating on Committee conference calls
Decision: Proposed workflow & chain-of-command for Paulo Coimbra
Decision: Closure of the Summer of Code (based on http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dcn8962c_34fdbm4zqn FYI)
- Paulo will do a final contact to the pending projects
Proposed model for the next Season of Code
- Track A) Climbing up the quality/Assessment ladder
- Track B) Innovation
- Track C) Integration
- caveat is that by the end of the SoC 09 any project that has not been rated becomes a Alpha
- Deadline:
  - Launch SoC: 4th March
  - Deadline for applications: 26th March
  - Deadline for Board Decision: 8th April
  - Start of SoC 09: 9th April
  - Completion for SoC 09 is next OWASP USA conference
Budget for next Season of Code 09
- 125,000k (100k for participants and 25k for reviewers)
- Ticket for Summit is worth 2,000 USD, and each applicant can 'buy' it with their SoC (remember that Summit is going to be invitation only)
