Wow webdev does seem easy! But using .htaccess files gives me a ...
/webdav/.htaccess: DAV not allowed here

The user side is my stock error:
Internal Server Error
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, Bryan.ONeal at Cornerstonehome.com
and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might
have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.
Apache/2.0.55 DAV/2 Server at projects.cornerstonehome.com Port 80

Webdav would work great in this case.  Windows users can access it via
the "web folders" support in XP and on and Linux users can access it via
any number of webdav tools (including the built-in webdav IO slave in
KDE... try 'webdavs://host/' in Konqueror).

There are actually quite a few decent HOWTOs on setting up WebDAV with
SSL.  Here's one that is RH9 centered but with lessons that carry over
for all distros:

I have this setup locally for my shared calendars (iCal, KOrganizer,
Sunbird, and Thunderbird w/ Lightning).  It works great.
