OWASP Coderbounty
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CoderBounty/coderbounty/master/coderbounty/static/images/logos/owasp-coderbounty.png

The OWASP Coderbounty project aims to achieve gamification within OWASP by placing bounties on Github issues that accelerate development of projects, cheat sheets writing code and related tasks while keeping security in mind.

OWASP Projects can accumulate points for each bounty offer and in this way their money spent into running a bounties can increase.

30% of the 10% earned commission will go to the Flagship/LAB projects budget for running bounties.

Description
Coderbounty accelerates software development in the open source community. We connect developers who want to make money with software creators. Coderbounty makes it easy to get your issues fixed for a low cost. Developers compete for the cash prize, i.e. bounty, to get the issue done fast.

Open source software used to require developers to donate their time to help out a project. Now, with Coderbounty, they can earn money. When project managers need to add a feature to an open source program, they can add the issue and post a bounty that will attract coders to complete it. Coderbounty is the best way to get open source code issues solved and supports innovation in the open source and software industry.

=FAQs=

How can I participate in your project?
All you have to do is make the Project Leader's aware of your available time to contribute to the project. It is also important to let the Leader's know how you would like to contribute and pitch in to help the project meet it's goals and milestones. There are many different ways you can contribute to an OWASP Project, but communication with the leads is key.

If I am not a programmer can I participate in your project?
Yes, you can certainly participate in the project if you are not a programmer or technical. The project needs different skills and expertise and different times during its development. Currently, we are looking for researchers, writers, graphic designers, and a project administrator. See the Road Map and Getting Involved tab for more details.

How do I use this Coderbounty
First find an issue on any of the services we support, paste a link to it, and add a bounty. Additionally you can add to existing bounties or if you are a coder you can complete the tasks and get the bounty!

How long will the bounty remain on the issue
As long as you want. You can request a refund within 60 days for a 3% fee, after that the bounty stays on the issue until it is closed.

What does open mean
Open means that the issue has not been fixed, coders can commit their code and fix the issue.

What does in review mean
In review means that the coder has committed a fix, and the issue reporter and bounty placers are reviewing the code. Bounties can still be placed and when the issue remains closed for 3 days, the bounty is paid out to the coder who committed the code to close the issue.

What does paid mean
Paid means that the issue has been fixed, was in review for 3 days and has been verified as closed. Also, the bounty was paid to the coder who closed the issue.

Can you integrate my bug tracker for my company
Yes! Let us know in the feedback area or send an email to coderbounty at gmail.com

I code, will I be guaranteed the bounty
Yes! Payment is collected up front and held in escrow. When your code is approved you will receive a payment to your selected payment service.

What does take mean
Take gives you exclusive rights to close the issue. This issue will be blocked from anyone else taking it and you will have 24 hours to resolve the issue.

Contributors
The OWASP Coderbounty Project is developed by a worldwide team of people. A live update of project contributors is found here.

The first contributors to the project were:


 * Sean Auriti who created the OWASP Coderbounty project
 * Long Yang who helped add more gamification features to the first version
 * Andrey Gromov Helped with the first version's funcionality

= Road Map and Getting Involved =

Roadmap
1 - fix any issues the site may have, integrate payment services

2 - Endemic Advertising with tags on GitHub

3 - Collaboration with FOSS Communities & Orgs to develop a mutually beneficial model

4 - Develop the site to become the go-to tool for open source software development

As of February, 2016, the highest priorities for the next 6 months are:
 * Get other people to review OWASP Coderbounty and provide feedback
 * Incorporate feedback into changes
 * Finalize and have it reviewed to be promoted from an Incubator Project to a Lab Project

Subsequent Releases will add
 * Internationalization Support
 * Additional Unit Tests
 * Automated Regression tests

Getting Involved
Involvement in the development and promotion of OWASP Coderbounty is actively encouraged! You do not have to be a security expert or a programmer to contribute. Some of the ways you can help are as follows:

Coding
We could implement some of the later items on the roadmap sooner if someone wanted to help out with unit or automated regression tests

Localization
Are you fluent in another language? Can you help translate the text strings in the Tool Project Template into that language?

Testing
Do you have a flair for finding bugs in software? We want to product a high quality product, so any help with Quality Assurance would be greatly appreciated. Let us know if you can offer your help.

Feedback
Please use the Uservoice for feedback about:  What do like? What don't you like? What features would you like to see prioritized on the roadmap? 

=Minimum Viable Product=

Our MVP is to have a fully automatic bounty purchase and payout as well as integrate special functions, methods and processes for OWASP projects.
