Re: New web of things server projects

Fascinating discussion folks!

One (rather peripheral) question:

I hadn't previously understood the reference to scaling, server farms and
the like as implying that such huge objects might become WoT things in
themselves. Is that indeed an objective? If so what type of use cases would
WoT serve in that context?

(Subtext: I can see the rationale for WoT in the context of constrained
devices, but struggle to see why that vision would be applied up to and
including every other computational device or collection of devices.)

Thanks, best,
