[mvolkmann]

@codetalcott Is there any disagreement over whether this is a good change?

Hi @mvolkmann do you think that langauge is defensible given the discussion here:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28459418/use-of-put-vs-patch-methods-in-rest-api-real-life-scenarios

Maybe we should use the RFC language, or at least reference it?

Sure, using words from that post is fine with me.
So instead of my suggestion to add the word "all" for PUT, we would add "a modified version"
and instead of my suggestion to add the words "some of" for PATCH we would add "a set of changes".
