use of PUT for partial updates
------------------------------

                 Key: CMIS-28
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/CMIS-28
             Project: OASIS Content Management Interoperability Services TC
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: REST/AtomPub Binding
            Reporter: Julian Reschke
            Assignee: Al Brown


updateProperties uses partial update logic, but uses the HTTP method PUT. As far as I can tell, this is a bad use of PUT.

This really should use PATCH (<http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2068#section-19.6.1.1>), or alternatively POST.

Note that this is one of the issues that are not CMIS specific, so they really should be discussed on the Atom mailing list.
