Next Tuesday, @w3c is holding the breakout day where anyone, W3C member or not can participate in the discussions. There are two related to the Web of Things, that we invite everyone to join:
- How to manage multiple resources of a specification such as JSON Schemas, Ontologies and more: https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/fb7b6d9f-fc2f-456f-9fff-3a516f3ec7ab/
- How to structure and manage registries in W3C specifications: https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/7c1b6bcd-9ee1-4570-ba4d-9ccad717e78f/
The Web of Things is getting more and more adoption. Big and small companies, open source and other standards are relying on WoT.

Which #iot devices are available in your local network?
@w3c Web of Things Discovery specification has envisioned multiple mechanisms to obtain the Thing Descriptions of the devices without knowing their address in advance.

How does the vision of the Web look like for the IoT?
The Web of Things activities at the @w3c is pushing for a web of connected real devices. Find out more at https://www.w3.org/WoT/.
The Web of Things can work with multiple protocols via the bindings, such as #http , #mqtt , #bacnet or even old protocols like #modbus .
Some of these protocols split the information into different channels (headers, body, URI variables and other protocol parameters).
One question left is how to map the logical information into each of them.
