If you were not able to figure that out on your own, are you really
competent to write documents about XML issues? After all, XML has just the
same principle in this respect as HTML does. At the minimum, the "<"
character must be written using an entity reference or a character
reference. Any "&" character must be "escaped" in a similar manner. There's
no need to "escape" the ">" character, but people usually do that, for
symmetry.
