"RDF Concepts and Abstract Syntax" states that there are only plain 
literals and typed literals, with XMLLiteral being a predefined type of 
typed literal. Does this mean the following two assertions are 
semantically equivalent?

<rdf:Description>
	<my:xml parseType="Literal">XML content</my:xml>
</rdf:Description>

<rdf:Description>
	<my:xml 
rdf:datatype="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#XMLLiteral">XML 
content</my:xml>
</rdf:Description>

Thanks,

Garret
