In the Data Model document, each kind of node has a list of named properties, but the document does not in general specify the information that is contained in these properties. In some cases, the properties are directly associated with accessor functions from which their types can be deduced (for example, dm:nilled() returns a boolean, so presumably the nilled property contains a boolean). But in other cases it is not so clear. Some essential information, such as the "tuple" representation of dates and times, does not seem to be present in the node properties. The content of the various properties should be clearly explained (and enhanced, where necessary to support the accessor functions). The types of the properties should be declared where appropriate (some of them may be implementation-dependent).
