I think this is a very exciting project, I’ll do my best to be at the next meeting.

Can you summarise for us on the email list, if there are gaps where resource, knowledge etc are required - there are lots of lurkers on the security list just waiting for the right opportunity to jump in and help with something.

Hi Shohel,

  Thanks for you update, I can understand the timezone problem, I will keep reading the wiki and if there are any questions I will post here, it's really appreciated to help to answer with that then.

Thank you : )

Hi Shohel and Everyone,

I am new to OSSG, and I would be happy to support the OpenStack Threat Analysis activity.
Most meeting time proposals in email thread below work for me.

Thanks and Regards.
Cristian.

Hi Hui Xiang,

You are welcome to join the meeting and take part in the review / Threat modelling work we are currently working on. Or if you have some suggestion, please
share with us.

We will discuss the time schedule issue in the next meeting. I thinks it would be bit difficult cause we have some participants from US timezones.

We are continuously updating the Wiki page ( although there is sometimes a lag) and related information, so that everyone is informed.

Thanks,
Shohel

Because I am in UTC+8 timezone, always can't attend the OSSG meeting before due to sleepy, but I don't  want to miss this meeting although I am not very familiar with the current topic, I want to contribute more here.
