This document relies on the registry track mechanism of the <ahref="https://www.w3.org/policies/process/#registries">W3C Process</a> and extends it to be specific and fit to the purposes of WoT bindings.

This enables a binding to be written by people with a good understanding of the binding, who are not necessarily participants of the WoT Working Group, such as other organizations developing a standard that can be used with WoT.
106

This also allows the WoT Working Group to focus on the core specifications and engage other communities at the same time.

<p>Association of a binding with the TD specification (registry entry) SHOULD be confirmed by the WoT Working Group or its custodian. In other words, a person needs some permission and/or confirmation to authoritatively say that a given binding can be used with TD version X. The custodian of this registry is the WoT WG in the beginning.</p>
