Hi Nathan, I googled a bit around and found the following in the official GeoRSS Wiki: http://www.georss.org/gml#Polygon http://www.georss.org/Encodings#Geometry At first view it seems the current implementation is a bit too simple regarding the edge cases. Would like to have a look into the specification draft/document, but didn't find it.
