I have attempted to improve the wording for the out of scope and deliverables sections to clarify the intent:

The set of protocols should include HTTP, WebSockets, and CoAP as a minimum, and may include MQTT, MQTT-SN, XMPP and AMQP. The work item will include guidance on security and privacy considerations, and may be split into separate specifications for each protocol.
