I’m glad to announce that we have a new draft ready to address many feedbacks that suggested adopting the PATCH method.

It is a generic byte-appending operation that can modify any types of media, so we don’t think it fits into an application media type. > > We are open to suggestions if a media type is desired. The generic answer here would be application/octet-stream. That doesn't cover the appending aspect, but it's the most generic media type available. Regards, Martin.
