mod_authz_svn authorization configuration - strange behaviour!

Hi all,

we are struggling here with extremely strange behaviour of the
mod_authz_svn module.
The behaviour is anything but not according to the contract (SVN red-book).

The svn_access_file looks like this:

group = abc

[/]
* = r

[/project]
@group = rw
* = r

And now, believe it or not, one can commit to /project WITHOUT giving
any credentials !!!

The apache-config has the following options:
<Location /repo >
  DAV svn
  SVNIndexXSLT "/svnindex.xsl"
  SVNPath /var/svn/repositories/ifa
  Satisfy Any
  AuthType Basic
  AuthName "Subversion repository"
  AuthUserFile /var/svn/repositories/repo/conf/svnusers
  Require valid-user
  AuthzSVNAccessFile /var/svn/repositories/ifa/conf/svn_access_file
  AuthzSVNNoAuthWhenAnonymousAllowed On
  AuthzSVNAuthoritative Off
</Location>

What is going on here?
Did I get something wrong?
(I also turned on apache debug mode, but that did not give any info
what is going on behind the scenes of mod_authz_svn.

Is there some really good (that means, normal) tutorial or
documentation existing?
