Changeset 3447 for cats/ISOcat/trunk/mod-ISOcat-interface-gi/interface/JSXAPPS/ISOcat/js/org/isocat/data/User.js

Timestamp:

Message:

Made the ISOcat API more RESTful:

• create resources using POST
• update resources using PUT

One outlier: we use POST for creating users eventhough the client in this case specifies the full resource URL
Other outliers: in many cases we allow a dummy 0 for a POST call, e.g., POST /dcs/0 to create a new DCS
