The RFC begs to differ :) http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec9.html "If a resource has been created on the origin server, the response SHOULD be 201 (Created) and contain an entity which describes the status of the request and refers to the new resource, and a Location header (see section 14.30)."
