Hunchentoot has no special support for GET and POST either, or for
MKCOL, PROPFIND, and so on.  The only method that gets special
treatment right now is HEAD for obvious reasons.  It is up to the
application programmer to support certain methods.

Depends on the semantics you want to have.  If for example you want to
write a WebDAV server, there remains quite a lot for you to do.
Believe me, I once wrote one... :)

Cheers,
Edi.
