PRD02 - OpenFormula strings?

[Alex Brown <alexb@griffinbrown.co.uk>]

Dear all,

In Pt 2, 5.4, the BNF for constant strings is given as:

String ::= '"' ([^"#x00] | '""')* '"'

And the text states that, in XML "XML escaping rules apply". Yet how can this BNF be reconciled with the character repertoire XML permits (in which a number of characters are prohibited)?

The BNF should either be aligned with XML 1.0, or a provision added that OF strings in XML documents must align with XML 1.0.

- Alex.
