The denotation of an XML Literal is an octet sequence, as defined by the xml canonicalization spec, see the note in: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/RDFCore/TR/WD-rdf-concepts-20030117/#section-XMLLiteral Pat, does this suggest deleting from section 3 [[ This terminology is deliberately agnostic as to whether or not XML data is considered to be identical to a character string; note however that the XML data values corresponding to well-typed XML literals are in precise 1:1 correspondence with the XML literal strings of such literals. ]] The statement you make is correct, in that the terminology is agnostic, but its also unnecessary and maybe a little misleading.
