Agreed. My understanding is that collapsing PUT + POST into a single behavior has the effect of creating an UPSERT command from distinct INSERT and UPDATE commands...not exactly a bad thing most of the time. Calling the resulting collapse POST can be both good (because it's popularly supported by most browsers) and bad (because it's confusing with the ReST-ful meaning of POST). -tkc --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
