the results of several plug-fests that were conducted by the WoT

The [W3C Web of Things Architecture](https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-architecture/) and
[Web of Things Thing Description](https://www.w3.org/TR/wot-thing-description/)
define a powerful mechanism and a format to describe myriads of very
different devices, which may be connected over various protocols. The
format is very flexible and open and puts very few normative
requirements on devices that implement it.


However, this flexibility de-facto prevents interoperability, since,
without additional <strong>rules</strong>, it allows implementers to
make many choices that do not provide <strong>guarantees</strong> of
