To make this work I need volunteers. Your job is to pick a project, learn a bit about it, then present it to the rest of the group. Informal discussions are good, prepared presentations are better, and live demos are best. The goal is lively, informative, low-stress discussions rather than formal, extensively-research presentations. Spend an hour or two familiarizing yourself with your project (you do not need to be an expert on it), jot your notes into a couple of slides, then share with the group for 5 - 10 minutes.
 
 
Need help selecting a project? Take a look at the [[:Category:OWASP_Project|OWASP Projects page]]. Try tools you use already (the [[:Category:OWASP Top Ten Project|OWASP Top 10]]), tools you've heard of and want to learn more about ([[:Category:OWASP_WebGoat_Project|WebGoat]]), or discover something entirely new ([[:Category:OWASP Enterprise Security API|ESAPI]]). All projects are encouraged, from the popular to the esoteric. Still undecided? Send me a note with your interest in presenting and I will happily suggest some projects to choose from.
 
 
To avoid duplicates, project topics will be first-come first-served. Email your topic idea to either mark.major or rob.jepson at owasp.org and we will add you to the meeting agenda. Please check this Wiki (or the [http://www.meetup.com/OWASP-Boulder/ chapter's MeetUp.com page]) to see what other people have taken prior to choosing your topic.
 
 
Current project presentations (in no particular order):

*Rob: Top 10
 
*Sunil: WebScarab
 
*Del: Zap
 
*Greg: Mantra
 
*Mike: DirBuster
 
*Karen: Threat Modeling
 
 
Please remember that seating is limited and is prioritized for those who RSVP through MeetUp. If you have a change of plans, please update your RSVP status to allow space for those on the waiting list. Food and drinks are provided and the facilities will remain open after the meeting for socializing and networking. All meetings are free to attend.
