[TinyOWS-users] Is GML2 in WFS 1.1.0 filters acceptable?

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

What is the TinyOWS interpretation about request like this one captured
from Geoserver demo requests?

<wfs:GetFeature service="WFS" version="1.1.0"
  xmlns:topp="http://www.openplans.org/topp"
  xmlns:wfs="http://www.opengis.net/wfs"
  xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/ogc"
  xmlns:gml="http://www.opengis.net/gml"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.opengis.net/wfs
                      http://schemas.opengis.net/wfs/1.1.0/wfs.xsd">
  <wfs:Query typeName="topp:states">
    <Filter>
      <Intersects>
        <PropertyName>the_geom</PropertyName>
          <gml:Point
srsName="http://www.opengis.net/gml/srs/epsg.xml#4326">
            <gml:coordinates>-74.817265,40.5296504</gml:coordinates>
          </gml:Point>
        </Intersects>
      </Filter>
  </wfs:Query>
</wfs:GetFeature>

Is is allowed to use GML2 in a filter as
<gml:coordinates>-74.817265,40.5296504</gml:coordinates> even the
outputformat for WFS 1.1.0 is GML3 which is using gml:posList? Or are
there just other rules in the Filter Encoding for confusing the poor
users?
