Just took a very quick look at the schema for gmlSimpleFeaturesProfile
(attached).

It is a limited subset of gml which allows (amongst others) the
following simple constructs

<!--<Polygon xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/gml";
    <interior>
        <LinearRing>
            <posList>
                10 10
                20 20
                25 32
                12 45
                22 45
            </posList>
        </LinearRing>
    </interior>
    </Polygon>-->

<!--<Point xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/gml";>
    <pos>10 10</pos>
</Point>-->

We'll see what Knut provides back and see whether these are
sufficient, but these do seem to to map against what we have.  There
are of course additional optional attributes and elements but if we
don't model them we don't need to produce them.  Not sure if I go for
all the inner ring stuff but then again what I know about GIS I could
write on the back of a cigarette box.  Others will know better.

Regards
Bob
