+<PRE>
+ In 6.1, and still in 8.0, there is some logic that surprised me, and I wanted to see if it was intentional, or if I'm missing something.
+
+ If I set up a POST such that it's a create, I get back a 303, rather than a 201, on successful create. This came as a bit of a surprise; I know from Webmachine, if it's a new resource being created, a POST will return a 201 (N11 to P11 in Webmachine's v3 diagram).
+
+ Is this intentional? The logic seems to be post_is_create/2 -&gt; create_path/2 -&gt; put_resource/3 -&gt; choose_content_type/5 -&gt; next/3 -&gt; respond(_, _, 303). It may be that this is a better response, rather than a 201 with the location header, but it came as a surprise given web machine's behavior.
+
+ For background, I'm attempting to migrate some web machine code to Cowboy, which is serving a RESTful API to a Javascript client. The client is making CORS calls. Receiving a 303 and a Location header seemed to mean that the call was redirected before the client side code ever saw it (not sure what the browser was doing; I was expecting another request, but I wasn't quite lucid enough to check for that last night when working on it); a 201 allows me to examine the location.
