Again, not sure what the big deal is. It's like asking: Does the term "Web" imply the use of CSS?

It doesn't.

HTML, maybe-ish.

Sure it does. It's an important part of the Web as it allows people to style their documents.

See my comments above.

The single most important feature of the Web is that loosely coupling lies at the core of its architecture. That means the system is dexterous and tolerant, by design its acceptable of variety and evolution.

So is RDF to Linked Data, as it allows people to represent data and make links to third-party data.

    Why don't you tell us what "question" needs to be answered then?

    I would *suggest* something that goes something like this:


    Does the term "Linked Data" imply the use of RDF?

    I would also (in addition to this list) include the following
    groups: (by posting the poll to their associated lists):

    1. LDP -- Linked Data Platform
    2. JSON-LD
    3. Semantic Web
    4. RWW
    5. WebID.

    1-5 cover the following profiles (labels un-pegorative) in good
    proportion:

    1. RDFers -- those who see Linked Data and RDF as being tightly
    coupled
    2. RDFRefluxers -- those who simply blank out whenever they
    encounter "RDF" or R-D-F i.e., put those letters together in any
    form it's a turn-off
    3. Independents (folks who see Linked Data and RDF as being
    loosely coupled) -- I put myself here, for sake of profile clarity.
