==Execution Power==
 
 
This task force exists on the assumption that it has a mandate from the OWASP leaders to act on behalf of the OWASP community on what is best for OWASP Projects. We are in the process of submitting a Committee Proposal for Project reviews
 
 
If somebody (namely an OWASP Leader or Board member) disagree with any of the decisions made, he/she has two options:
 
 
* join this Task Force/Committe
 
* create another equivalent 'OWASP Projects group' and do a better job there
 
 
''note that Committee 2.0 will change this as this task force might converge to a new Committee or fall under one if needed''
 
 
==Current Members==
 
 
* Johanna Curiel
 
* Timo Goosen
 
* Abbas Naderi
 
* Jason Johnson
 
* Noreen Whysel - OWASP Community Manager (Staff)
 
* Azzedine Islam Mennouchi
 
 
==OWASP Projects Task Force (Concept)==
 
 
This is a new type of OWASP initiative, focused on 'getting things done', the concept is still evolving but here are the current (in draft) guiding principles:
 
 
#  this 'task force is an invitation-only group' (to join the task force, requests should be made directly with existing task force members)
 
# all existing members have VETO power, and it is assumed that all decisions are backed up with all existing members
 
# only existing members can send the invitations
 
# there is a 1 month minimum activity required (or the member is temporarily out).
 
# invitations are automatically approved in 24h
 
# existing members can VETO new members (and existing members can be kickout by majority)
 
# there an one special member who has veto power the responsibility to enforce the 'one month contribution MIA scenario' (i.e. to kick out the 'non contributing members')
 
# all communication MUST be made (as much as practically possible) under public mediums: Wiki, public mailings, public Hangout sessions
 
# there are NO decisions made BEHIND closed doors, or without a solid digital (hyperlinkable) trail
