I don't
think that not importing the files necessarily implies that the import is not
honored.
The original
statement in the resolution of Issue 7 was:
"A
<bpel:import> location element will be interpreted as a hint for BPEL
processors. In particular, processors are not required to retrieve the imported
document from the specified location".
So it only says that
the location information is a hint (but the import statement could
still be satisfied by other means).
The statement
appearing in the latest draft is more ambiguous:
"The presence of an
<import> element should be interpreted as a hint to the BPEL4WS processor.
In particular, processors are not required to retrieve the imported document
from the location specified on the <import> element".
Now it is saying
that the <import> element itself is a hint. Not sure what exactly that
means.
