I've just created a big PR <https://github.com/w3c/wot-profile/pull/426> (could
benefit from your review) to close a bunch of them with a re-write of the
HTTP Webhook Profile, but we need volunteers to help close the rest.

We are aiming to publish the Note by the *end of July* so time is getting
very tight.

Any contributions would be welcome!

Kind regards

Ben
