Re: "Call for Review: Web of Things Interest Group Charter"

Given the absence of objections in the responses, we didn’t think it
would be helpful to raise a structural objection to a problem which is
not specific to this proposed IG charter.

In short: Everything in this IG charter appears that it could be done
as and in a CG, and thus we'd rather see this group transitioned to a
CG (with a similar explicit charter) and the IG closed accordingly.

CGs are now common practice at W3C for both the various community
purposes and incubation efforts listed in this charter, and thus a CG
should be sufficient.

We’d like to see steps taken at a higher level to halt the creation of
new IGs, find transition plans for existing IGs that map well to CGs,
and figure out what are any remaining motivations for IGs that are not
addressed by CGs to see if those can be rectified.

The Process document (and thus CG) seem to be an appropriate place to
escalate this. Open to additional suggestions.

Thanks,
