? There's only one server administrator, isn't there? Since when are
users able to examine the repository database directly?

The server always knows where each repository is located; it
couldn't open the repository otherwise. :-) You're right, with a
shared logfile, the names of the repositories would have to be
logged, so that we can tell the logs apart, that's a given.

We're not planning on making any changes to the way apache/
