Hi Olaf,
What's your overall goal? It might be that there's another way of
answering your underlying question or achieving this goal than such a
study (which if it doesn't exist may be costly in time and money to
perform).
I want to learn something about potential users of SQUIN and other
linked data applications from such a kind of report. I was wondering
whether I can even derive some requirements.
Greetings,
Olaf
Hi Olaf,
I am not sure whether you only want to know the reaction to LD by
developers only. Our projects have been supporting the needs from
users who have little or no techy background. They quite buy the idea
of Semantic Web, for making it easier to mash up datasets, technically
speaking. However, we are still looking for compelling cases to show
that there are things that cannot be done without LD. And I would
really want to know what the LD community feels about how far the LD
technology is reaching outside the SW community.
Looking forward to SQUIN:-)

Jun,
Have you looked at:
1. http://esw.w3.org/topic/WebID - What, Why, and How of a Personal URI
(how you make your WebID the conduit disparate data of relevance with
in-built "Meshing" since "Mashups" should be antithetical to LD)
2. http://esw.w3.org/topic/foaf%2Bssl - addressing non-repudiatable
identity using LD and SPARQL within existing SSL framework
3. http://esw.w3.org/topic/Rdb2RdfXG/StateOfTheArt - data integration
across RDBMS, XML, and other Sources
