OWASP has begun the process of stabilization its PROJECT ASSESSMENT CRITERIA. The objective is to have clear and objective requirements for OWASP project's deliverables (for both tools and documentation).
- The current structure is still in flux, so please spend some time reviewing it and send us your comments.
- The objective is to map all OWASP Projects to the proposed 3 project modes (Release Quality, Beta Quality and Alpha Quality) in the next couple months.

OWASP is about to launch the 'OWASP SUMMER OF CODE 2008' (SoC 2008). This follows the successfull OWASP Spring of Code 2007 (SpoC 07), in which 21 projects were sponsored with a budget of US$117,500, and the OWASP Autumn of Code 2006 (AoC 06), in which 9 projects were sponsored with a budget of US$20,000.
The SoC 2008 is an open sponsorship program were participants/developers are paid to work on OWASP (and web security) related projects.
The SoC 2008 is also an opportunity for external individual or company sponsors to challenge the participants/developers to work in areas in which they are willing to invest additional funding.
