Cool. Adding new resources (not collections) is done in the doPost() 
method and therefore this feature was not available for add resource 
section. I fixed it.

Edit functionality (EditProcessor.java) and the edit UI is done only for 
testing the registry. Only the read-only browse view is a feature of 
0.1. I agree that appropriate HTTP actions should be used for editing 
resources. But it has to be implemented with a proper protocol for 
editing and viewing (e.g. APP), which is not decided as a feature of 0.1 
release.

Thanks,
