Hi folks, So I have basic support for APP built into the AtomicXML/AtomicRSS code base [1], and had planned today to spend my time working with the latest spec, line by line, to begin to finishing out full support. Thats when I ran into something I new was a hot topic of discussion from years past. I can only assume that this, # POST is used to create a new, dynamically-named resource. # PUT is used to update a known resource. differs from the explained difference in RFC2616 [2] for good, solid, and fundamental reasons, so I am not attempting to start any sort of late-breaking war here, and simply asking if someone can point me to the best possible URI in which explains the reasonings behind the use of POST and PUT opposite that which is stated in RFC2616.
Here is nice explaination: http://www.elharo.com/blog/software-development/web-development/2005/12/08/post-vs-put/ And no, the use of PUT and POST in the APP is not the opposite of what is stated in RFC 2616, it is quite in line with RFC 2616. -joe -- Joe Gregorio http://bitworking.org
