This is a discussion that was raised up during OGC Testbed 15:

Some metadata members can be easily overridden with a PUT request by mistake from a client that is cloning some existing metadata.

Metadata fields that should only be managed by the server (e.g. stylesheet links) should be ignored in a PUT request.

SWG discussed this Issue on 4 May 2021. Recommend this Issue be assessed during Tiles, Maps and Styles Sprint in late May.

Note: Perhaps just allow PATCH (?)

This Issue was not addressed during Tiles, Maps and Styles Sprint in late May.

Clemens P to take action to generate Pull Request to just allow PATCH and allow servers to ignore parts of PUT that shouldn't be changed by the client.
