 * This week, I worked on developing the strategy outline, and I am analyzing the macro and micro environment OWASP exists within.


 * Google for Non-Profits: YouTube Channel
 * I helped Project Leader, Jonathan Marcil, submit an application too Google for Non-Profits on behalf of OWASP.
 * We had to apply to Google so we could link his YouTube channel to our foundation account with Google.
 * Unfortunately, the application was unsuccessful, twice.
 * However, we managed to get it approved with a bit of persistence.
 * Jonathan is all set up to put together our official YouTube channel on behalf of the foundation.
 * Thank you Jonathan for your hard work on this, and for taking this project on.
