Well, I think Servlet itself is an interface...GenericServlet implements Servlet. According to the API ALL servlets must implement Servlet interface. A lot of examples extend GenericServlet and hence implement Servlet.
Take note of: http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/2.3/javadoc/index.html
I hope that helps!

I think what they want is
javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet
That is what I typed in, and it worked for me.
