So I need to set up a complicated view/create/delete taxonomy permissions to about a hundred of individual users. For example, a specific user should be able to create a specific taxonomy vocabulary item, and nobody else.

With Taxonomy Access Control module, I don't want to create hundreds of roles just to put each user under each role.

With Taxonomy Access Control Lite module, it only allows me to set view permissions. I need view, create, delete :| :|

Any suggestions on how to do this?

anishkan, you will get more help if others can see that you have tried to look for solutions yourself. For example, there are many contributed modules relating to user access at http://drupal.org/project/Modules/category/74 . My thinking, however, is that if you have a hundred users and want each of them to have unique permissions, you'll need to have something custom coded or create a hundred different categories. Sorry if that is not the answer you want to hear.

tac_lite version 1.2 supports view, update and delete. For create, you need to use Drupal's regular access permissions.

I was looking for private categories, i.e. allow a user to post content and associate it to their own category, not the site's category so they can word their categories as they like...

I worked on this today and hacked the taxonomy module, functionality is ok, not offering all I need yet but very close.
Take a look here and contribute ideas:

This doesn't sound like it will provide all you require, but it does give a user the ability to manage their own vocabulary terms.
