Did you read what I wrote?  I'm talking about a _certification_
process, which verifies e.g. accessibility for people with
disabilities, where after successful certification sites get the
right to use a certification mark called "Internet Quality Label"
or whatever.

I'm not talking about duplicating the work that has already been
done in creating specifications about how to communicate metadata
like "this site has been certified" in a machine-readable manner.

Greetings,
Norbert.
