This covers 
linking within documents, and consists of a family of
standards, XML Pointer, XML Base and XML Linking.
XLink (XML Linking Language/XLL)
It's clearly closely
related to the hyperlinks module of HyTime, without that relation
being made explicit in an architecture.
Status: Proposed Recommendation (20 December 2000) for links in XML.
XPointer (XML Pointer Language)
is a draft specification for location specifiers in XML, so that you
can refer, for example, to `the second section beneath the element
with id so-and-so'.
Status: Last Call Working Draft 8 January 2001
As with XLink, it's closely related to HyTime. This and the previous specification are currently working drafts, but should turn into recommendations in the short term.
