You have to give those others some tla-supported write access to the
archive directory (or portions of it).  The project trees, where the
subdirectories you name will live, have no relationship to the archive
layout.

Grant the ten people in the first group write access to the archive.
Grant read access to the others.

You could set up the top level, src/, src/gui/ and src/net/ as
separate branches[1], use arch configurations to provide a properly
structured checkout, and grant write access to certain people only for
the relevant directories.  tla itself does not enforce commit
restrictions.
[1] Any of the repository, archive or branch name could differ to
achieve this result.
