I was referring to using a POST against a member resource. Not POST in
general. Of course, who knows if the Restafarians would consider WebDAV
a RESTful service. The REST religion has many branches, they don't
always agree. :)
I believe the guy who coined "REST" was one of the authors of the WebDAV
spec. And I think it's a good enough spec. But the use of GET in
WebDAV sucks royally, and it's something noticeable in other REST
practices too -- they don't leave enough room for UI (aka web applications).
