I'm sure that there are many others as well, but another effort that has at least \
some overlap with OWASP is ISECOM (formerly ideahamster.org?).  Is there someone \
within OWASP looking at other organizations and efforts that overlap with OWASP \
goals, and determining what if anything the organizations should do together?

While ISECOM is international, it seems to have originated, and is still \
head-quartered, in Spain. Here is the contact information for the founder and leader \
of ISECOM:

Pete Herzog - Managing Director - pete@isecom.org
ISECOM - Institute for Security and Open Methodologies
www.isecom.org - www.osstmm.org
www.hackerhighschool.org - www.isestorm.org
-------------------------------------------------------------------
ISECOM is the OSSTMM Professional Security Tester (OPST),
OSSTMM Professional Security Analyst (OPSA), and Hacker Highschool
Teacher certification authority.
