    Again, my GML expert friend says that a polygon would look like:
    
    <gml:Polygon>
        <gml:exterior>
            <gml:LinearRing>
                <gml:pos>12 4</gml:pos> <gml:pos>12 8</gml:pos> ...
            </gml:LinearRing>
        </gml:exterior>
    </gml:Polygon>
    
    The rigorous geometry model carefully distinguishes between the interior
    and the perimeter of the object. This is useful in cases where
    you really do want to indicate that a specific sub-area is *excluded* 
    from
    consideration.
