Mentioned this on Twitter and some OWASP mailing lists groups yesterday, but should have mentioned it here as well:

Hi all,

The results of this years election are in. Joining myself and +Matt Konda is Johanna Curiel. Please welcome Johanna to the Board! And thanks to all the candidates - very close result this year means many excellent candidates and ideas. I hope they continue to push for a spot on the Board as every Board needs renewal and fresh ideas. 

There are only 4 days left for +OWASP members to post their ballots in this year's Global Board of Directors election. If you are a financial member or honorary member as of October 1, you will find your ballot in your e-mail. It might have been sent to spam, so hunt around if it's not obvious. Please ask questions of any of the candidates (which includes me!), interviews here:

This year, there are three vacancies, so don't feel you have to pick just one, which is especially important when there are so many great candidates to choose from.

I am standing for the Global Board. Ask me anything!
