The SCAP Security Guide (SSG) Contributor WorkShop is a term for regular sessions, hold by SSG upstream. The point of these sessions is to help people willing to contribute to the SCAP Security Guide project by providing additional information / guidance, where to start. The sessions have the form of a webinar (accessible online, sometimes recorded - we will tell you in advance, presented slides available offline for following self-study). The sessions tend to be interactive (practice the covered topics interactively). It is primarily designed for SCAP content developers (searching for the internal details & build blocks SCAP Security Guide content is created from). But audience from wider community is welcome too.
