The Web Thing Protocol Community Group<\/a> has been launched:<\/p>\n

\n

The mission of this group is to define a common protocol for communicating with connected devices over the web, to enable ad-hoc interoperability on the Web of Things<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Deliverables of the group may include use cases, requirements and specifications.<\/p>\n

The group will collaborate with the W3C Web of Things Interest Group and Working Group to ensure any specifications complement or extend the \u201cWeb of Things (WoT) Thing Description<\/a>\u201d specification.<\/p>\n

Objectives:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Define a WebSocket sub-protocol for the Web of Things, using the W3C \u201cWeb of Things (WoT) Thing Description\u201d data model and operations<\/li>\n
  2. Define an HTTP protocol binding for the Web of Things (or support the Web of Things Working Group in defining this protocol binding and ensuring consistency with the WebSocket sub-protocol where appropriate)<\/li>\n
  3. Evaluate other potential Web of Things protocol bindings (e.g. CoAP)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    See the proposed Community Group Charter<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n

    \n

    In order to join the group<\/a>, you will need a W3C account<\/a>. Please note, however, that W3C Membership<\/a> is not required to join a Community Group.<\/p>\n

    This is a community initiative. This group was originally proposed on 2019-09-16 by Ben Francis. The following people supported its creation: Ben Francis, Gustavo Zapico, Junde Yhi, Zoltan Kis, Dave Raggett. W3C’s hosting of this group does not imply endorsement of the activities.<\/p>\n

    The group must now choose a chair<\/a>. Read more about how to get started in a new group<\/a> and good practice for running a group<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    We invite you to share news of this new group in social media and other channels.<\/p>\n

    If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please email us at site-comments@w3.org<\/a><\/p>\n
