At the current time, the Ape always re-fetches the collection feed

finding an atom:entry representation of any given entry.
I realize that this message is a bit old, but you aren't using
the entry from the feed for editing purposes, are you?
Yes, I pull the ID and the edit-URI out and blast a modified version
of the original I posted, with the right ID, via PUT. I suppose I'm
violating a SHOULD in that I'm not preserving server-generated
foreign markup, but for the purposes of the Ape it seems to work
fine. I suppose it would be an improvement if I fetched the entry
before updating it, although I'd be surprised if the difference was
material to the Ape. -Tim
