Description

Per Jukka's email:

It would be a better use of REST/HTTP "verbs" to use POST to put content to a resource where we don't intend to store that content (which is the implication of PUT). Max suggested adding:

@POST

annotations to the methods we are currently exposing using PUT to take care of this.
