Actually, the configuration does not make much sense because of a number of 
reasons:

- "Directory /" is the same thing as "Default". They match *all* requests. 
Since there must be a default rule at the button of the rule list, odds are you 
will not need a "Directory /" entry -- FTR: there are advanced/complex cases 
where it'd be necessary though.

- If you want your static content served from /, just set the document root to 
the appropriate directory; in this case /srv/www/mydomain.net/public.html/static

- Think of custom Document Root entries as exceptions. For instance: for 
document root is /srv/www but you wanna have a web directory /icons point to a 
path outside the document root, let's say /usr/share/icons/www.  In this case 
you'd add a rule "Directory /icons" with the custom document root (and handler 
"Static content").
