He has excellent knowledge across many security areas and a professional positive attitude towards helping people understand and embrace information security.

4	David Campbell	Industry Committee Member	Colin was instrumental in organizing the Portugal Summit, and provided much valuable input to the Intra Gov't affairs working group. He will be a great asset to the Industry committee.
5	Rex Booth	Industry Committee Member	Colin has been an active participant in the Industry Committee since its inception in Portugal. He absolutely deserves to be an official member and we could certainly use his assistance!
6	Mano Paul	Global Education Committee Chair	Colin was extremely helpful with all his voluntary helpful to make the OWASP EU summit at Portugal, a success. My interactions with him left me in respect of him for his background and experience and in what he has to offer to OWASP. I can vouch confidently that his official involvement in the Industry Committee will undoubtedly reflect positively on OWASP and you consideration would be appreciated. Highly recommend.
7	Ivan Ristic	Former OWASP London Leader	Colin is not only a regular visitor of OWASP London meetings, but someone who's willing to lend a hand when help is needed. He strikes me as a person who can be relied upon to do the right thing.
8	Georg Hess	Industry Committee Member, OWASP Germany Chapter Leader	Colin contributed from the very start of the Global Industry Committee - in particular with his expertise in the UK market. It is obvious that he should be "on board".
