More Funding Potential

  1. OWASP ESAPI FUNDING PROPOSAL
  2. DHS has expressed interest in funding the OWASP ESAPI Project.
  3. We have started by creating a new proposal questionnaire document.
  4. Chris Schmidt, ESAPI Project Leader, and I have a meeting scheduled this week to discuss this proposal.

Important GPC Meeting Outcomes and Discussion Points

  • High Priority Objectives for Handbook:
    • Migration to Incubator, Labs, Flagship system.
    • Sorting out reviews/reviewer process
    • Focus on simplification of processes
  • Samantha will duplicate the current handbook document: Aim is to start with a fresh document using the previous version as reference.
  • GPC Members will go through handbook and cross off information that will no longer be relevant: Flagship designation, Sourceforge references, etc.
  • Flagship designation will be left out for now. We will start with Incubator and Labs.
  • Double check FSF licenses and create a list.
  • Ownership of Projects: Agreed that this needs further development in the future, but for now we will leave it as "business as usual". Project Leaders keep ownership of their projects.
