Dear all, Just our $.02 on this: - We think that the proposed "recipes" go up to the level of application modelling and should not be part of any Thing Description. - When we make the semantic vocabularies too complex, we may endanger their adoption by IoT developers, who may not be so familiar with the semantic web.
