The traditional means of participation is by attending meetings and contributing reviews of documents between meetings. But the SSSWG is eager to accommodate participants through other means, and all are encouraged to contact the SSSWG Chair if such accommodation is desired, if the required registration fee poses a problem, or if access to documents of the SSSWG is required. The SSSWG is flexible. IEEE membership is not required for participation in most working group activities.

The SSSWG maintains and develops various documents online. These include public documents readable by everyone, draft standards which are password protected, and working drafts, also password protected. If you have questions about access to any document, please contact us. We are always looking for reviewers, and SSSWG participants may access the group's drafts.
