Presuming you are in the kline group also, and that the files are  
group-writable, you should be fine.

On a fair number of sites I know of, there is a "webadmin" or  
"wwwadmin" group setup which the users who should change webserver  
resources are part of; but the apache www user is not a member of  
this, so it can't change those files itself.
