WSDL Service Interface documents contain type, portType, and binding 
elements. 
The WSDL Service Implementation contains import and service elements, as well 
as a description of a service that implements a service interface. The import 
element imports a WSDL Service Interface definition. 
The WSDL Importer gets its information from the import service interface and not 
from the service implementations. Both document types can be combined into a 
single document. If both document types are not combined into a single 
document, the Service Implementation document will include an import statement 
to import the Service Interface document. If a Service Implementation document 
is processed by the importer, the importer must be able to import the Service 
Interface document to obtain the message definitions.
