OK, I have every intention of being awake after this cup of tea.

GeoRSS GML:

<georss:where featuretypetag="mountain" relationshiptag="summit-of">
   <gml:Point>
     <gml:pos>42.366813 11.106217</gml:pos>
   </gml:Point>
</georss:where>

GeoRSS Simple:

<georss:point featuretypetag="mountain" relationshiptag="summit-
of">2.366813 11.106217</georss:point>
