I think, the best solution would be that we use <![CDATA[ ... ]]> for those values where XML-reserved characters may occur (i.e. almost anywhere , except of name, kindName and so on). 
The format of the latter values are forced by constraints.

I am using ">" symbol in one of my attribute prompts. Here is a snippet from the generated .xmp file:

 

      <attrdef name="AbsoluteLowerBound" metaref = "1149" valuetype = "string" defvalue = "">

         <dispname>> (mandatory) :</dispname>

      </attrdef>

 

GME barfs when trying to register this xmp file, which is quite obvious. My question is: Shouldn't the meta-interpreter be automatically generating escape sequences for xml-reserved characters? Peter, is there a separate buglist for reporting Meta-environment bugs?
