Why not create a group "iphoto" and change users to this group with Netinfo Manager. Then give write permission to the Group with

chmod -R g+w ~/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library
Should work... at least iPhoto does not change the permissions.

Didn't work: starting and quitting iPhoto changes the AlbumData.xml file back to group "wheel" with "-rw-r--r--" permissions.

The file is deleted and recreated

The problem is that the .xml file gets deleted and recreated. So the new file gets created with the default settings. (It may be affected by the unix umask setting.)
