--f46d044280c43a47f9050081a45b Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8" Hi Marijn, '409 Conflict' may be an option but its document says "This cod= e is used in situations where the user might be able to resolve the conflic= t and resubmit the request." [1] which is not true in your case. So "405 Me= thod Not Allowed" might be the best option. Why do you think it is odd to c= hange the allowed methods on runtime? IMHO, when state of the resource cha= nges, its interaction could change as well. It is it is even expected, for = example, the responses to the OPTIONS method is not cacheable.
