I recently had a cause to try this out. I wanted to translate GeoRSS GML. Turns out I couldn't do it until I changed the syntax to GML2 format and threw some extra tags around the <gml:Polygon> element to make it more like a "real" piece of GML. You can grab my sample file from here (for a few days):
http://georss.mit.edu/basin_gml2.gml

Here's my command line run on that file:
prompt: ogrinfo basin_gml2.gml
Had to open data source read-only.
INFO: Open of `basin_gml2.gml'
      using driver `GML' successful.
1: type
2: shape

Hi
Any plans for the OGR FDO to support GML
I guess it may not be fast enough to used live, but it would be useful for odd utility.

Gary,

The FDO OGR Provider can already be built with GML support if it is
desired.  I'm not sure if it is part of the default build or not.  It
really depends on how the OGR is built.

Note, there are limitations with the OGR GML driver. GML2 only, and easily
confused by complicated gml.

Best regards,
