Ah! My bad :-) Drupal will be there too. The important thing, above all else, is for LOD to dog-food the use of these platforms as sources of Linked Data. The idea is simple, we want to show that Linked Data and Linked Documents are mutually inclusive aspects of the Web. Thus, publishing and consuming Linked Data shouldn't be an adjunct to platforms that already operate in the Linked Document Web realm. For instance, when phpBB3, Drupal, Wordpress, and MediaWiki are up, LOD members should be able to connect their identities across these Data Spaces via owl:sameAs (which is simply a case of using the URIs that Virtuoso mints for users of those systems when they are hosted inside Virtuoso) thereby retaining the person entity URIs as the preferred (easy to remember and comprehend) entry point to the resulting personal data space graphs.
