Re: [PATCH] Re: Is mod_dav_svn safe for use in a threaded MPM?

Your latest patch looks reasonable to me.

Also, the client *does* choose the activity name. It does a PROPFIND
asking the server where activities should be stored, and gets back an
opaque URI. The client then sends a request: "MKACTIVITY
URI/someactivityname". It could be anything.

libsvn_ra_dav is set up to use an apr_uuid as an activity name, but a
malicious client could send "../../blah" or an activity named AUX or
COM or something. We need to put in some server-side checking.
