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.
