Is the Service name TYPE mandatory in WS-BP1.0

[Softwaremaker]

Hiya Fellows,

I know that there are a few implementations out there that actually writes
pure interface WSDL files. Therefore, the Service name is NOT mandatory for
such an implementation. Such a modification can be easily made: simply
remove the deployment information from the WSDL file by deleting the Service
Element. By doing that, one now has a pure Web service interface
description.

My question is if I do the above, will it conform to WS-Basic Profile 1.0 ?

Any help is appreciated.

When in doubt, always run a conformance tool. There are several out there:
