SGML lawyer questions

These are off-topic for this list, but SGML stuff shows up on
occasion, so I figure I'll post them here rather than searching for
an SGML list, especially as I know there are mavins here....

Consider the following two document instances in reference concrete
syntax (the ### lines are not part of the documents):

### start here ###
<!DOCTYPE text [
	<!ELEMENT text O O (#PCDATA)>]>
this is text
### end here ###

### start here ###
<!DOCTYPE text [
	<!ELEMENT text O O (#PCDATA)>]>
   this is text starting with 3 spaces
### end here ###

My questions:

1) Are these documents valid?
2) What is the content of the TEXT element in each document?
