Web-based SVN auth file editor?

   Can anyone recommend a relatively light-weight AuthzSVNAccessFile editor? 
  I just tried svn-access-manager but it's fundamentally broken in a few 
places & I gave up trying to get it to work.


   Really, all I want is for those people in charge of a repo. to be able to 
edit that repo's (but only that repo's) access permissions instead us having 
to hassle our admin guy for each mod.

   I remember seeing a few SQL-based ones (which I avoided at the time, but 
will try if need be), but I can't seem to fin them now!


   I don't want too many dependencies, as the server's Solaris, which has an 
... interesting package management system.

Subversion Edge supports this.  It simply loads the authz file into a
text field in your browser though (no fancy high-click UI).

It also supports Solaris and it just a tar.gz you can unpack where
ever you want it.

It requires Java 6 be installed, and also requires Python.  The Python
needs to provide shared libraries so that mod_python works.

Information on migrating from an existing install is in the project wiki:

https://ctf.open.collab.net/sf/wiki/do/viewPage/projects.svnedge/wiki/MigrationPath

The wiki also contains Screenshots which show the authz file editor.
