Hi Kristis, Marcel,

Just a thought on this: Here, we use a modified version of 
commit-access-control.pl to make tags read-only.  Would it be better to 
concentrate on making scmbug very good at integrating SCM and bug tracking and 
avoid adding features that aren't tied in with that?  If someone wanted 
read-only tags but not SCM-bug tracking integration, would it not be difficult 
for them to set scmbug up this way?  If you had two tools, scmbug plus 
something like commit-access-control.pl, sure you would have the annoyance of 
having to tell two different tools how your branches/tags/trunk in Subversion 
are laid out, but that could probably be easily fixed by making a common 
configuration file and with some #include-style directive.  Would there be 
significant performance differences between using one hook and two hooks?

Thanks in advance,
David
