I don't know much about security. From the looks of the discussions here 
I'm not sure I want to.

What I do know is that I can put stuff behind httpd's authentication 
modules and outsource that complexity to people who appear to know what 
they're taking about.

Is there a way I can use OAuth with httpd's authentication modules? 
Google shows some preliminary rumblings about a mod_auth_oauth, but 
nothing recent. Is there some fundamental reason OAuth is incompatible 
with the tried and true mod_auth_* approach?

cheers
