n xs:string optional 
(number) gives a number (or other label) for an element, which is not
necessarily unique within the document.
next xs:anyURI optional 
points to the next element of a virtual aggregate of which the current
element is part.
origin xs:anyURI optional 
designates the origin of the timeline, i.e. the time at which it
begins.
prev xs:anyURI optional 
(previous) points to the previous element of a virtual aggregate of which

select restriction of list of xs:anyURI optional 
selects one or more alternants; if one alternant is selected, the

defines the rendering or presentation used for this element in the source
text
synch restriction of list of xs:anyURI optional 
(synchronous) points to elements that are synchronous with the current
element.
unit union of(restriction of xs:token, restriction of xs:token, restriction of xs:token, restriction of xs:token, restriction of xs:token, restriction of xs:token) optional 
specifies the unit of time corresponding to the interval value of the
timeline or of its constituent points in time. Suggested values include: 1] d(days) ; 2]
h(hours) ; 3] min(minutes) ; 4] s(seconds) ; 5] ms(milliseconds)
xml:base xs:anyURI optional 
provides a base URI reference with which applications can resolve relative URI references into absolute URI references.
