Mark,
since this only solves the problem when adding via Subclipse (I might have added by another client like Turtoise) it might be good to put my story in a FAQ or WIKI.

Betreff: Re: The 'I cannot edit any file' HOW-TO
This just came up earlier in the week with someone else wondering what the
red decorator means.
Technically, I think this is a bug in Subversion that it does not remove
the read-only attribute when you run svn add. They did not seem too keen
to fix it, so I added code in Subclipse to remove the read-only attribute
after the add operation runs.
That should take care of the problem.
