I was disconnected from mail for a while so I missed all this while I
was trying. I was running Vista in VMWare on my Mac and had to shut
down a bunch of stuff while doing it.

I had somewhat similar experience to Stefan. It did not work. I did
some Googling and found the same patch he did. I then installed it.
A difference for me is that after installing it both http and https
just worked. I did not try with tigris.org, but I did try with
openCollabNet (http). tigris still runs SVN 1.3, although that should
not matter.

I connected to the repository root URL anyway when testing. But both
http and https worked without a hack. Maybe Stefan's Vista is part of
a domain or something where the rules are different. I have Vista
Enterprise installed in my VMWare.

I did not have Office installed so could not test its features. But I
was able to use drag and drop to copy files, edit them, and save them
back.
