I do not know anything about the files or their permissions, 
but regarding un-annotated tags I personally find it a very 
good idea to block them. One of the major problems we have 
with our own CVS repository is the lack of information 
regarding tags, who set the tag and why. So IMHO annotated 
tags is the only way to go. Then again, I am not the 
repository owner for GStreamer...
