Anybody who had "write" access to the "root" location for a given
repository directory. So if the "/xcorp-svn" URI location corresponds to
"/var/lib/xcorp-svn" on the filesystem, you could (I think) configure
Apache to only allow certain people to perform DAV "write"-type methods
for that location.

Then people who can't make a repository but can write to existing ones are
given "write" access to "/xcorp-svn/foo".
