I don't think this would be a good idea: websvn 1.x will no more be
maintained, and this will cause bugs / security problems (see #439337).

Since I really don't want to maintain the code itself, it is clearly a
better solution to go for websvn 2 migration. Configuration files are
not very different, however if they had been really customized I think
there will be no proper solution.

So, I really see that as a not-so-bad (force migration) vs worse (keep
unmaintainable code) solution.

Though, opinion / ideas on this problems are welcome.

Pierre
