In "Resource Operation" Add a paragraph names "Safeness of Operations" 
with the following text.

[[
Safe operations means that the action executed on behalf of the 
user or service requesting the operation will not result in any side 
effect imputable to the requester. It means that in case of an underlying 
protocol error that might get unnoticed, resending the same request can be 
done automatically.

Only [ref to Get] Get is defined as a safe operation.
]]

We could add that resending the request makes no implication in getting 
back the same response as time has changed (like "Get the current time")
