3. PUT calls handle updates to existing resources on the server, in a similar way, with DELETE allowing removal of resources.
4. In terms of WebDAV, JCR also has a nice WEBDAV client implementation available that extends Apache's httpclient, but with some WEBDAV specific support built in.
The RestAPI class in Drools-Repository has some very good detail on how this process works, and I'd suggest looking there if you have questions (on the REST API side).
There is some discussion about REST, as well, currently on the dev mailing list if you search Nabble.
A few ideas,
