svn log get revisions by date

Good day all,
I am working on an application that uses information from an svn log between
two dates. After searching around I have found the following is supposed to
work (according to the SVN book)

svn log --revision {2002-11-20}:{2002-11-29} URL

I have tried this and although it does indeed give me results between
the two dates, it also gives me many values outside that range.

Try for example svn log --revision {2008-11-02}:{2008-11-04}
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf
and you can grep 2008-01

You will find a handful of lines that contain 2008-01-* which is quite
clearly outside the range given. I am looking for values between
November 2nd 2008 and November 4th 2008.

You can even grep 2007 and you will find many entries that aren't even
in the same year that I have specified.

This is a problem. Now I can go ahead and double check the dates
against the desired range. I can very easily exclude the January dates
when the range is for November. But how do I know that I am actually
getting all the results and not just a subgroup?

Any insight would be appreciated!

Cheers
Eric
