Well, a little history on me and blogs. I am an older person, so I am more conservative. I am also the first born. So for me, public self expression is only good for dancing :-) Giving the world my opinion and being 'an authority', in public, is not emotionally comfortable. (Giving unwanted advice to strangers on planes, busses, trains is not a problem. Remember, I am a first born ;-)

So, I haven't read too many blogs unless Google found them for me. I don't follow but one, inactive blog. I don't look for an audience for my blog. So .... I'll answer the obvious question.

If I find something that takes me a long time to figure out, I will post the answer here for everyone else's benefit - (Usually in the Open Source community.) I owe the Open Source world a lot, we all do. The web would be a mish mash of standards, most by Microslop, if Open Source were not the dominant force there. ALL your interactions with the web would be mostly to benefit Microslop's marketing focus.

I am having a VERY difficult time finding clear material on how POST and DELETE methods are used on Apache HTTP servers. All the 'great' RESTful articles discuss that HTTP servers can do it, and 'just set it up' to take care of the 'U' and 'D' of CRUD (Create-Read-Update-Delete) of basic content management, AKA, REST.

My next blog post on this blog will discuss what I have found so far, and the details I have not worked out yet. Eventually, this blog 'subject'(?) will show exactly how it is done and the pitfalls found trying to 'make it so'.

This is my first blog. Been working on how to do BLOBs in REST on php and keeping it totally internationized (I18N). So expect more during the next week.
