I'd be happy to provide: Description: the purpose of this test case is to show how reserved characters in XML - in this case the ampersand - are escaped when they are used in an RDF document. Note that the ampersand is represented by its corresponding entity as specified in: http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml#sec-predefined-ent In the associated N-Triples file the encoded ampersand entity will be replaced with a single ampersand character. Note: when a XML/HTML browser is used to display this file, the ampersand may be displayed instead of the '&amp;' entity. -- [ "Aaron Swartz" ; <mailto:me@aaronsw.com> ; <http://www.aaronsw.com/> ]
