OWASP Learning Gateway Project
The OWASP Learning Gateway Project proposes developing a platform that is adaptable to the learning needs and user requirements of a global community of technology learners. The gateway will offer learning pathways that connect learners with mentors and knowledge needed to be successful. Our ultimate goal is to be a successful Science Gateways Incubation Project.

Description
OWASP Learning Gateway Project will be a connected, collaborative learning platform to support the OWASP Mentor Initiative. We are currently working on a framework for the platform development.

=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.

= Road Map and Getting Involved =

Roadmap
As of November, 2016, the highest priorities for the next 6 months are:
 * Complete the first draft of the Code Project Template
 * Get other people to review the Code Project Template and provide feedback
 * Incorporate feedback into changes in the Code Project Template
 * Finalize the Code Project template and have it reviewed

Subsequent Releases will add
 * API Strategy and Framework
 * Internationalization Support
 * Additional Unit Tests
 * Automated Regression tests

Getting Involved
Involvement in the development and promotion of Code Project Template 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 Code 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 OWASP Learning Gateway Discussion List for feedback about:  What do you like? What don't you like? What features would you like to see prioritized on the roadmap? 

=Minimum Viable Product= The Code Project Template must specify the minimum set of tabs a project should have, provide some an example layout on each tab, provide instructional text on how a project leader should modify the tab, and give some example text that illustrates how to create an actual project.

It would also be ideal if the sample text was translated into different languages.
