[Committees-chairs] [Owasp-board] Connections Committee Application

[Michael Coates]

Yes, totally agree that Jerry rocks. My apologies if the email thread appeared to be specific to Jerry's application. I was referring to the fact that the process itself was confusing. Hopefully my last email clears up the process and we'll get the wiki updated for all future scenarios.

Looking forward to having Jerry on the committee for sure!
