OWASP Newsletter #11 (18-Jan-2008)
Welcome to the 11th edition of the OWASP Newsletter, featuring the 2008 Australia Conference, the AntiSamy Project and the Secure Application Development Course 2008.
First of all, I would like to introduce myself as OWASP’s new Operations Director. I began working with OWASP on November 26, and will be in charge of all administrative operations. This will include handling all of the memberships, assisting with the planning and coordination of OWASP conferences, managing OWASP’s bookkeeping and assisting with any issues as they arise. I will also be in charge of writing and posting the OWASP Newsletter. We hope to eventually get these out on a weekly basis.
I would also like to welcome our newest OWASP Chapter located in Minneapolis. Kuai Hinojosa is the chapter lead.
As always, if you have any content to add to the next edition, please feel free to add it directly to its WIKI page OWASP Newsletter 12.
