PaceRemoveAcceptPostText


Abstract

Shorten Section 8.1

Rationale

Section 8.1 is poorly written and over-specified. HTTP lets every resource choose which methods to accept based on server-determined criteria.

Proposal

Replace "section 8.1 creating resources with POST", first sentence

Every collection accepts POST requests to create resources - the client POSTs a representation of the desired resource to the IRI of the collection. 

with

To add members to a collection, clients send POST requests to a collection's URI.

Also, strike

The status code returned for a successful creation POST MUST be 201 ("Created").
