Ive just looked and done a test - and yes WebDav uses PUT and the other
basic HTTP actions - it just extends them with metadata and COPY / MOVE etc.
I've set up a WebDav server and it seems to work fine - very simple from
Rev.

I'll take another look - from memory it was a very well implemented done
REST service - but the PUT you refer to was not simply the data - but a
formatted XML packet - still I must look at it again and the library kicking
around on the list?
