Thanks for your all your help James and Tassos.

I am not very convinced that this is a generic behavior because I
could get the "write" authentication to work with the 
org.apache.slide.store.mem.TransientSecurityStore (by testing the
photospace.SimpleFileStore sample store written by Alon Salant
available at 
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/photospace/slidespace/WEB-INF/src/photospace/slide/)
for both existing resources and new resources.

I am still not able to get the /actions/read permissions apply. I will
send a separate mail about it.

I believe that you can not set the permissions for existing soruces
with TxXMLFileDescriptorsStore because it saves the permission
information to the XML files bin\store\metadata directory as soon as a
node is created
(on a side note, I have given up testing permissions on
TxXMLFileDescriptorsStore because I am not able to get both read/write
permissions to work with it and my custom store is more closer the the
SimpleFileStore).

Thanks,
Girish
