Fix for issue#1807
Hi,
I just tried to understand how the patch actually solves the problem of
broken XML PROPFIND responses (see
<http://subversion.tigris.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1807>).
Unless I'm missing something, it doesn't solve it in general; it just
implements a workaround that happens to work for ra_dav (but will break
when the underlying XML libraries actually *do* namespace checks). Other
WebDAV clients still will say broken XML and give up.
Should a new issue be opened (for 1.2)?
Best regards, Julian

It resolves the symptom. But you're right, if the XML libs on the
client side start being more strict it'll break again. There is no
possible fix for 1.2. We'll need to review what we're doing with
properties in 2.0. So if you wanna open a issue on it that's fine, but
the milestone should be 2.0.
