	- I appreciate the effort the authors have put into revising the paper. Unfortunately, the revised version still falls short of the necessary details required for a journal publication. As noted by the authors themselves, "this initial exercise offers an initial glimpse into the languages' ease of use and foundational constructs. Further in-depth evaluation and testing would be necessary for a comprehensive assessment of their suitability for IoT applications."
	- Despite the multiple iterations, I must express that the paper, in its current state, cannot be accepted as a contribution to the journal. It is deemed premature and lacks the in-depth and rigorous evaluations needed for the considered domain-specific languages. The evaluations are conducted without sufficient consideration for the software solutions or platforms that consume these languages.
	- I acknowledge the attempt to analyze different languages using a common example, as suggested in the previous review. However, the chosen "Hello World" example provides a very simplified view of IoT systems. Real-world IoT systems encompass diverse components, including data sources, gateways, edge devices, cloud components, and user applications (such as dedicated dashboards). The conclusions drawn from the given examples remain at a surface level and lack the necessary depth for a comprehensive understanding of the problem.
	- In light of these considerations, I recommend reconsidering the paper with a focus on conducting more thorough evaluations and providing detailed insights into the domain-specific languages, considering their applications in real-world scenarios. This would enhance the paper's suitability for a journal publication.
