The reason why we are not calling this out too loudly is that the recommendation is still emerging and that it is by far not the only recommendation that needs to be taken into account for a Linked Data Platform. There is also RDF, SPARQL 1.1 (including the protocol), WebID and WebACL (still working groups, no recommendation so far) and some others that might be interesting in enterprise settings (like versioning and the memento protocol). But in the proposal we should maybe add pointers to all these recommendations. > * will Linda (or whatever name you'll choose) cover data governance aspects > too. right now to me it looks like the assumption is that data is already > "normalized" where enterprise data usually isn't in real life.

At the very least we will provide documentation how to transform legacy data into linked data. One tool we are currently using is a modified version of Google Refine (see the screencast on the current LMF homepage). But we will not cover such scenarios in-depth, I would see this out of the scope of the project, and there are others doing this already, e.g. D3RQ, Pubby, etc. Linked Data needs not necessarily also be Open Data, the same technology can also be used inside enterprises for information integration. In enterprises, the platform will have to fulfill many more requirements, especially regarding access control.
