The biggest challenge in IoT seems to be figuring out how to make embedded systems engineering interesting/understandable to a layperson and non-technical business people. There’s a certain amount of buzzwords and marketing BS that’s required to get the necessary adoption in the market so I’d encourage you to look past that and focus on the merit of the design. I’m not quite sure why you think it’s useless though, seeing as how it tries to improve semantic interoperability and is somewhat similar to the iotivity protocol plugin manager, and arguably makes that iotivity feature redundant since iotivity be part of a WoT servient and provide the same functionality. Sure, the W3C has had some duds but WoT and the interledger protocol seem like they have potential.

I think you’ll find these links quite useful/informative. Thank you for the links. https://w3c.github.io/wot-architecture/#sec-building-blocks https://w3c.github.io/wot-architecture/#sec-servient-architecture (weeping) "servient" architecture? Could someone just shoot me now? I have once again lost the will to live. Invention of bogus "technical" terminology is a sure sign of intellectual impoverishment. https://w3c.github.io/wot-scripting-api/ https://www.theinternetofthings.eu/michael-koster-i-am-building-wot-servient-based-iotivity-ocf-open-connectivity-foiundation-resource No offense intended but as far as I can see WoT is a complete waste of time. Kinda like W3C? RDF, anybody? Semantic web? Didn't think so. Gregg
