Announcements from the Foundation

  • Community Polls
    • Community initiated to capture the pulse on an issue. Feedback mechanism to raise visibility on a topic
  • Speaker Agreement
    • Recommendations for simplifying and clarifying as well as examples of what is acceptable and what is not.
  • OWASP Portal is now live and community in beta
    • We now are using the portal for all membership and event registrations (there are also public links (similar to guest checkout) to both so logging into the portal isn't required to purchase or attend. The portal is a central place to manage contact information, preferences such as chapter allocation, membership, event registration and coming soon donations.
    • Questios? See https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Portal - Page is a work in progress, but it should outline where to go to log in as well as FAQs.
    • "Community portal" also added an item in the left hand navigation menu on the wiki
    • Any and all comments are appreciated - the community functionality is obviously in beta and we will need to decide whether to leave that feature "turned on".
  • Graphic Design
    • We have a graphic designer now to help with Foundation and community requests. Details about the costs and services are are here: https://www.owasp.org/index.php/Graphic_Design If chapters, projects, conferences have a need for anything design related, Hugo can help them and we will bill the according (chapter/project/conference budget). If community members have graphic design needs but no funds, they can submit a funding request (see above).
