I uses the rpms which is (was ??? seems to be offline now) available here
http://summersoft.fay.ar.us/pub/subversion/i386/subversion-latest/redhat-7.x/

and rpm reveals:
# rpm -qf /usr/local/apache2/modules/mod_dav_svn.so
subversion-server-0.28.2-6947

So yes, I am pretty sure I use 0.28.2

Best regards,
Vidar
