[I being the "Fred" in question...]

The question more completely stated had to do with whether the 
wsrp:ResourceProperties attribute on the wsdl:portType element was 
multi-valued.  That is, was it possible to associate multiple resource 
property documents with a single portType.

Sorry for the misunderstanding...

Restating the above, properties can have multiples.  The question was 
about the wsrp:ResourceProperties attribute...

Hope that helps...
