It'd be fantastic to get some drink brewing hardware together that actually supports this standard, that'd be the real icing on the cake. Are you aware of any people putting something together?
As it turns out, no: HTCPCP isn't a complete definition, so it never resulted in physical hardware. Except, of course, for the various teapots with chips inside that respond "418" but don't actually do any brewing.
Did people take it seriously? Unlike avian carrier, there is people connecting tea/coffee machine to the internet
Did people try to implement it for the sake of the joke (again, here I am thinking about the avian carrier)
what if, at some point, the standards and protocols you helped developed are applied?
Being realistic, it's not something I see gaining adoption, mostly because HTCPCP is a joke protocol and isn't a complete spec. Any internet-connected coffee machine nowadays would probably go through a ZigBee proxy or similar, and talk some proprietary format.
