37  * The HTTP PUT method is defined in section 9.6 of
38  * <a HREF="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt">RFC2616</a>:
39  * <blockquote>
40  * The PUT method requests that the enclosed entity be stored under the
41  * supplied Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers to an already
42  * existing resource, the enclosed entity SHOULD be considered as a
43  * modified version of the one residing on the origin server.
