[Global_membership_committee] OWASP on Linkedin

[dan cornell]

Couple of thoughts:

-What does on in the OWASP Members LinkedIn group that doesn't go on
elsewhere (normal OWASP LinkedIn Group, mailing lists, etc)?

-I don't mind the idea of having an OWASP Members LinkedIn group with
limited membership. Not sure if there might be others in the community
who would have a problem with that.

-Kelly: You do raise a great point about linking people's OWASP
Membership with their LinkedIn profile. Another potential issue would
be "expiring" folks from the group who didn't renew for whatever
reason.

Thanks,

Dan
