+
+<p>When Apache is configured with the <code>SVNParentPath</code>
+directive, the "Collection of Repositories" list will now be filtered
+based on read access to the root of each repository.  Previously, all
+repositories were included in the list even if navigating to a
+repository would be forbidden.  The "Collection of Repositories" will
+now be consistent with the directory lists within repositories.</p>
+
+<p>NOTE: Access to "Collection of Repositories" is <em>not</em>
+restricted by mod_authz_svn, but is instead managed by mod_dav_svn
+itself.  In order to require authentication on this location, the
+location should have "Satisfy All" (which is the default value of this
+directive).  See examples in mod_authz_svn's <a
+href="http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/subversion/trunk/subversion/mod_authz_svn/INSTALL"
+>INSTALL</a> document for additional details.</p>
