Statically typed access to Import/Export Service #26

I know it's not easy to do but can be nice to have programmatic access to Import/Export Service. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn529096.aspx Right now dev story is horrible because the service is half-ass WCF implementation meaning WsdlService provider cannot be used.

Hi... I've made the decision to concentrate the type provider on Azure Storage, so I'm not sure that this feature really fits with the provider any more. I know that other people are working on a more generic Azure service type provider, probably based around certs etc.

I agree about focusing on storage part. Closing the issue.
