RE: WSDL Import with just a location attribute

Why do you want to import the document? What does this achieve that you
can't get from include?

Hi Gurus,
What is fundamentally wrong with an import of a document, rather than a
foreign namespace, into a WSDL Document ?
If I translate my thoughts into syntax,
why is
<wsdl:import
location="http://www.twinktwinklilstar.com/wsdls/star.wsdl"/>
so unholy ?

Why not accept this variant ["of course", in addition to the existing
version] as a valid wsdl import ? If not, what's the strong reason
against this?

One more question - why is targetNamespace attribute for WSDL 2.0
documents mandatory ? Is it a WS-I issue ?


rgds,
Ram
