David,

@prefix rdfs: <http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#> .
<http://example/toucan> rdfs:isDefinedBy <http://example/toucan> .

Should be:

@prefix wdrs: <http://www.w3.org/2007/05/powder-s#> .
<http://example/toucan> wdrs:describedby <http://example/toucan> .

Even more so if we are going to have HTTP servers dispatching the following relation to user agents, via response metadata:

Link: <http://example.com/uri-documentation>; rel="describedby"

And for additional bonus points, re. many Web developers that operate at the (X)HTML resource level, you have the same relation expressed in <link/> relations in <head/>.

* Snippet and examples from my earlier reply to David Wood *
There is an inverse of rdfs:isDefinedBy [1].

Here's some easy to read SPASQL (SPARQL + SQL) showcasing the use of 
rdfs:isDefinedBy, wdrs:describedby etc..


INSERT INTO <http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco/>

{?s rdfs:isDefinedBy 
<http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco#> .

<http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco#> 
<http://open.vocab.org/terms/defines> ?s.

<http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco#> a owl:Ontology .

?s <http://www.w3.org/2007/05/powder-s#describedby> 
<http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco/>}

FROM <http://www.semanticdesktop.org/ontologies/2007/03/22/nco/>

WHERE { optional {?s rdfs:subClassOf ?o}. optional {?s 
rdfs:subPropertyOf ?o}. optional {?s owl:equivalentClass ?o}. optional 
{?s owl:equivalentProperty ?o}. optional {?s a ?o}} .

-- net effect of the SPASQL above i.e., a readable document that 
describes a specific ontology

Note re. sample pages 1&2, click on the @href of the "About:.." text and 
you end up in the data space from which the URI in question originates.
