Hi Mark, I synced from HEAD - and noticed that DefaultServlet.PUT now fails with '403' if the resource already exists. I'm pretty sure this used to work, and at least for webdav it's supposed to replace the content. Is this a bug - or intended (the problem seems to be preResourceExists() check in StandardRoot.write()) ?
