037 * </p>
038 * <blockquote>
039 * The PUT method requests that the enclosed entity be stored under the
040 * supplied Request-URI. If the Request-URI refers to an already
041 * existing resource, the enclosed entity SHOULD be considered as a
042 * modified version of the one residing on the origin server.
