we chose that URL so as to be able to have http://svn.openEHR.org (i.e.
our main URL is http://www.openEHR.org). Does no-one else do this? It
seems an obvious thing to do....

no, I think that would just be plain confusing, and I don't think it
would work anyway....but surely there is a way to tell apache to deal in
a certain way with a request straight off '/' , even with this
configuration?
I don't think changing the URL is an option - it is published all over
the place - everyone in our community knows it. I know we could put some
kind of redirect in, but that seems a pretty poor option as well....I am
quite surprised to find that the configuration which seems to be
preferred by the subversion manual is not compatible with managing web
robots...
