Open Source Web Application Security Alliance

###Problem: We have lots of open source applications out there, run by volunteers. Security issues have been popping up all over the place with the recent rails and rubygems.org exploits, and we'll be feeling the effects of this for years.

###Solution: We have a github org (or even just a mailing list) of vetted open source developers who have expressed interest in helping with security stuff.

In more details:

  • Github/mailing list with open source developers who have somehow been vetted by the community (no clue how to do this, maybe based off of how many people have signed their GPG key? something else?)

  • A open source application can apply to join - should have a 5:1 project:dev ratio at most.

minitech’s Web Checklist

minitech’s Web Checklist

Here are some guidelines that will make me actually like your amazing new web application!

  1. Make sure encoding is handled properly every step of the way. If ’ comes out as ’, you’ve got a problem on your hands. 😊

  2. Make it accessible. Turn off images, JavaScript, and CSS. If your website is still legible and usable (it’s okay if it’s just barely usable, or not particularly interactive) then you are already in the top 0.01%.

  3. Check your grammar. One of the fastest ways to lose respect in a blog post (or worse — in body copy) is to make basic orthographical or grammatical mistakes. These include, but are not limited to:

  • Missing apostrophes — [Bitbucket even did that][bitbucket-apostrophe-catastrophe].

Grouping in JavaScript
// A grouping function for JavaScript.
// Created by Ryan O'Hara.
// Usage:
// group([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10], function(x) { return x % 2; });
// group({a: 20, b: 30, c: 40, d: 50}, function(x) { return x % 20; });
// Result:
// [[1, 3, 5, 7, 9], [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]]
// [{a: 20, c: 40}, {b: 30, d: 50}]
