Convert GSD to GSDML

Can you convert GSD to GSDML?
QUICK ANSWER
Is it possible to convert GSD to GSDML?
No - not a direct conversion.

GSD (PROFIBUS) and GSDML (PROFINET) describe different protocols; a conversion between them is not meaningful. A PROFINET device needs its own GSDML from the manufacturer.
