[Owasp-leaders] Fwd: OWASP Certification - PureIQ

[Ralph Durkee]

As much as I would like to see an OWASP certification. We should stick  
with our decision for now and ask them not to use the OWASP name  
without approval. If they want to submit a propsal we should consider  
it later in the year.
Rehashing this more than 1/yr is probably too much.
Also I am very concerned that they would take this course without  
engaging OWASP. Doesn't refect well on how they do business.
