      <comment value="For many bundles, the timestamp is equal to .meta.lastUpdated, because they are
       not stored (e.g. search results). When a bundle is placed in a persistent store,
       .meta.lastUpdated will be usually be changed by the server. When the bundle is
       a message, a middleware agent altering the message (even if not stored) SHOULD
       update .meta.lastUpdated. .timestamp is used to track the original time of the
       Bundle, and SHOULD be populated.  

Usage:

* document : the date the document was created. Note: the composition may predate
       the document, or be associated with multiple documents. The date of the composition
       - the authoring time - may be earlier than the document assembly time
* message : the date that the content of the message was assembled. This date is
       not changed by middleware engines unless they add additional data that changes
       the meaning of the time of the message
* history : the date that the history was assembled. This time would be used as
       the _since time to ask for subsequent updates
* searchset : the time that the search set was assembled. Note that different pages
       MAY have different timestamps but need not. Having different timestamps does not
       imply that subsequent pages will represent or include changes made since the initial
       query
* transaction | transaction-response | batch | batch-response | collection : no
       particular assigned meaning

The timestamp value should be greater than the lastUpdated and other timestamps
       in the resources in the bundle, and it should be equal or earlier than the .meta.lastUpdated
       on the Bundle itself."/>

Bundle.entry.link corresponds to links found in the HTTP header if the resource
       in the entry was [read](http.html#read) directly.

This specification defines some specific uses of Bundle.link for [searching](search.html#conf
      ormance) and [paging](http.html#paging), but no specific uses for Bundle.entry.link,
       and no defined function in a transaction - the meaning is implementation specific.
        The behavior of navigation link types (next/prev/first/last) are well defined
       for searchset and history Bundles but are not currently defined for other types.
       Implementers who choose to use such link relationships for other bundle types will
