Since these are not RDFa documents, should these be recast to be
foaf:isPrimaryTopicOf ?

These are web pages not RDF documents.

Any others have thoughts on this?

foaf:isPrimaryTopicOf would only hold for those pages that plausibly have the thing as its main topic. Otherwise in FOAF we have foaf:page (inverse of foaf:topic...).

Also perhaps if folk here (or in the semweb lifesci group) have contact with the folk behind these various sites, perhaps they could be helped to upgrade them to use RDFa?

IMHO it is not really so bad to use rdfs:seeAlso for HTML pages, especially given the gradual rise of RDFa...

cheers,

Dan
