Abstract

see https://pr-preview.s3.amazonaws.com/w3c/wot-profile/pull/272.html#abstract

There is the following statement

The HTTP Baseline Profile formalizes the results of several PlugFests that were conducted by the WoT Interest Group and of tests that were conducted as part of the development.

This is simply not true and I suggest to reword/remove this statement.

Baseline Profile vs. HTTP Baseline Profile
Personally... I would stick to use one term. Using "Baseline Profile" may raise other expectations. Hence "HTTP Baseline Profile" seems to be the term to go with.

This has been true when the first draft of the profile spec was written.

It will become true again, when we have conducted the next plugfest, assuming we get enough participants.
In the meantime, please understand that we just keep the inaccurate text.
