Message Patterns vs. MEP

Hi,

WSDL V1.2 [1] introduces the concept of message patterns. What are the
differences between message patterns and message exchange patterns (MEP) [2]
introduced by SOAP 1.2 Recommendation? 

IIf they are the same, I am wondering why are they called as message
patterns? And, am wondering if the WSDL working group will use the template
[2] spelled out by SOAP 1.2 Recommendation for describing MEPs?
