According to who or what? "RESTful Web Services" page 300 reads "If the
resource already exists, parse the representation and turn it into a series
of changes to the state of this resource. If the changes would leave the
resource in an incomplete or inconsistent state, send a response code of 400
(“Bad Request”)."
I interpret this as meaning that PUT can be used for partial updates.
