Late last night we rolled out a fix to the PUT and DELETE problems on

Thanks for your patience on this issue!

Pete,
On the beta version, I get "HTTP/1.1 501 Not Implemented" response
(along with base64 content in a html body) for the DELETE request. The
PUT works.
On the non beta endpoints, both PUT and DELETE worked.
Odd... I can't reproduce that. I've used both the Java client
libraries and telnet. Here's my request:
DELETE /feeds/8719252590190437382/posts/full/1201572408799820151 HTTP/1.1
User-Agent: curl/7.13.1 (powerpc-apple-darwin8.0) libcurl/7.13.1
OpenSSL/0.9.7i zlib/1.2.3
Host: beta.blogger.com
Pragma: no-cache
Authorization: GoogleLogin auth=DQAAA....
Can you send more information?
Also, as a general note, if you're having trouble w/ DELETE and PUT
because of proxy or firewall issues, you can issue those requests as
POSTs and set the X-HTTP-Method-Override header to "DELETE" or "PUT."
Less semantic, more compatible.
