OPTIONAL]\n\n## Scope\n\n[What is in and out of scope]\n\n## Prior Work\n\n* List of prior and/or related projects\n\n# Get Involved\n\n*   Official communications occur on the [OpenVEX SIG Mailing List] (https://lists.openssf.org/g/openssf-sig-openvex).\n[Manage your subscriptions to Open SSF mailing lists](https://lists.openssf.org/g/main/subgroups).\n*   [Slack Channel #openssf-sig-openvex](https://openssf.slack.com/archives/C05009RHCNT)\n\n## Quick Start\n\n- Areas that need contributions\n    - Contributions to the OpenVEX [spec](https://github.com/openvex/spec/blob/main/OPENVEX-SPEC.md) or [vexctl](https://github.com/openvex/vexctl)\n    - Participation in evangelizing VEX as a means to share affecteness of software to vulnerabilities\n    - Participation in industry groups supporting VEX and SBOM\n- Where to file [issues](https://github.com/ossf/OpenVEX/issues)\n\n\n## Meeting Times\n\nThe OpenVEX Community meets every other Monday at [12:00 PDT / 21:00 CET](https://time.is/1900_29_May_2023_in_UTC/PT/Mexico_City/ET/CET/China_Standard_Time).
