Create Tags but not Modify/Delete

["Fedor, Halina (Mission Systems)" <Ha...@ngc.com>]

I wanted to find out if someone has created some scripts for Windows (in
Perl or via a pre-commit script itself) that will enable a group of
users the ability to create tags but not modify or delete them after
creation.  I am able to control who has the ability to write to /tags
via the svnaccessfile but I have no way to keep folks from accidentally
working in the tag directory and modifying stuff in there. I'd still
like the admin user to have the ability to rename/delete tags.

We are currently using Windows, and Apache for the server on v. 1.4.3 of
Subversion & Tortoise.

Thanks!

The svnperms.py script 
(http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/trunk/tools/hook-scripts/) will let you 
do just that.  Example syntax (found in the accompanying .conf.example):
   tags/[^/]+/ = @users(add)

I use it.
