For example to set up a workspace (ian) you can GET
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces/ian.xml and then when
setting up a new one POST that xm l to
http://localhost:8080/geoserver/rest/workspaces
The same follows for the other resources - I haven't yet found out how to
create a new grid set for GWC but I suspect that I need to change my
endpoint.
