Evidence and accountability

Evidence boundary: NIST's SSCA series page supports the next occurrence's dates, location, free/public status, and registration requirement; it does not establish agenda quality, GShips fit, accessibility, capacity, admission, or participant availability.

Conflicts: Publisher intends to explore a commercial venture based on some GShips work; no event registration, submission, sponsorship, attendance commitment, or organizer relationship exists.

What would change this record? A NIST update to the occurrence date, venue, agenda, registration availability, public-access rule, or host-site requirements would change this profile.
