4/ The world lacked a scalable and efficient way to communicate obligation, permission or encouragement from 'rule-makers' (including you) to 'rule-takers' (including you).

5/ We noticed that data expressing MUST, MAY and SHOULD, their various negatives and synonyms, comprise a class of data with intrinsic directionality. These terms even have their own standards:

So we optimized a way for data-with-direction to be discovered and transmitted over the Internet in a form directly usable by non-specialized humans and machines, for any purpose, in any language. #DWDS

6/ #DWDS enables a wide diversity of potential use cases. Early collaborations involve cross-border trade, @Xalgo4Trade, monetary system integrity (#ERA), and dynamic indexed pricing, etc. All use cases and functional components together constitute an emergent #InternetofRules -- a name proposed by @jrpotvin in 2016 https://vimeo.com/173809271
