James,

i could not give statiscally meaningful numbers in that regard. We had customers asking about that, and it is a fairly cheap
to implement solution, so it was a no brainer to add it. Hence I have only annecdotes to pass as evidence :)

In the end of the day though, if you have a company behind a firewall with this problem, it helps the adopters there to a significant
degree (like: "we can use it" compared to "we need to drop this"), so i would venture to say that it's well worth the few additonal lines of code...

Regards

Frank

Ah yes, I'd been meaning to ask y'all about this.  Have you found very
many environments in which the PUT/DELETE support is a problem?  We're
looking at a similar problem and had been kicking around a header-based
solution also.
