[Eug-lug] OWASP in Eugene, Feb. 28

[kevin at k2dd.com]

Hi all,

OWASP is the Open Web Application Security Project and we're kicking  
off a chapter here in Eugene. OWASP is a non-profit organization that  
delivers opens source tools and resources to improve web application  
security. Our first meeting is Feb, 28 which I know is a Thursday and  
conflicts with the weekly EUGLUG meetings. Sorry about that. I'm  
hoping to have future meetings on Wednesdays, but that depends to some  
extent on what the chapter membership wants. The announcement is  
below, and if anyone is interested in learning more about web  
application security, we'd love to have you.

Thanks,
-kk
