EDN params remains nil despite wrapping in this middleware

[ghost]

A lot of people on #clojure and SO have weighed in on this. In short, I am doing this:

curl -X PUT -H "Content-Type: application/edn" -d '{:name :barnabas}' http://localhost:6542/ajax-example

Getting this:

{:ssl-client-cert nil, :remote-addr "0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1", :params {}, :route-params {}, :headers {"host" "localhost:6542", "content-length" "17", "content-type" "application/edn", "user-agent" "curl/7.37.1", "accept" "/"}, :server-port 6542, :content-length 17, :content-type "application/edn", :character-encoding nil, :uri "/ajax-example", :server-name "localhost", :query-string nil, :edn-params nil, :scheme :http, :request-method

:edn-params is nil, but content length reveals that the content is in fact there somewhere. The full code is here:
