New submission from Andrew Dalke <da...@dalkescientific.com>:
BaseHTTPServer.BaseHTTPRequestHandler.responses contains a mapping from
HTTP status codes to the 2-ple (shortmessage, longmessage), based on RFC
2616.
The 2-ple for 405 is ('Method Not Allowed','Specified method is invalid
for this server.'),
RFC 405 says "An origin server SHOULD return the status code 405 (Method
Not Allowed) if the method is known by the origin server but not allowed
for the requested resource.
I think the message should be "Specified method is invalid for this
resource". That is, change "server" to "resource".
