<h1 style="text-align: center;">Tigris.org's Permission System</h1>

<p><a href="http://www.tigris.org/">tigris.org</a> has a hierarchical
role-based permission system (a user has a role in a project), which
is separate from commit access to <a
href="http://svn.collab.net/repos/svn/">Subversion's repository</a>.
Being a Subversion full committer doesn't imply you're given the
<em>Project Owner</em> role.  Active full committers who have
participated in the project for more than six months are eligible for
tigris.org's <em>Project Owner</em> role, which grants them the
ability to manipulate various additional features of the site.  This
role is not doled out immediately because of the power it gives to
accidentally re-arrange things on the site, and because of the site's
incomplete review/audit trail.</p>

<div class="h2">
<h2>Granting the <em>Project Owner</em> Role</h2>

the <em>svn</em> user group.</p>
