Review plan

The plan is:

  • 3/9: Project kickoff
  • 3/9-3/16: Perform Stage 1 review
  • 3/16: Status meeting
  • 3/16 - 3/23: Perform Stage 2 review
  • 3/23: Status meeting
  • 3/23 - 3/25: Stage 3 activities
  • 3/25: Compile comments
  • 3/26: Submit comments to NIST

Our review is being undertaken in three stages:

Stage 1

Activities: All participants perform a high-level, document-wide review to develop a familiarity with the document. Reviewers should note where rev 3 has introduced changes and where OWASP has the greatest potential for impact. Comment development is not required for this stage, but are a welcome side-effect.

Results: By the first status meeting, each participant should have three lists: 1) noted updates within the document 2) areas of the document most closely related to OWASP interests 3) initial draft comments (if appropriate).

Stage 2

Activities: Participants will be asked to perform a focused review on the sections of the document identified in Stage 1 as most relevant to OWASP. These "target sections" may be divided among project participants depending on project population and the number of target sections.

Results: By the second status meeting, each participant should develop a refined and detailed list of comments for their assigned sections.

Stage 3

Activities: Participants will revise comments as needed and project management will consolidate and format comments for submission to NIST.

Results: A final list of comments for submission to NIST.
