Sure, you can do that, that's fine.

Or you can write a single  block that has an SVNParentPath directive 
(instead of multiple  blocks with SVNPath directives). If the 
repositories have similar configurations, then this lets you have as many 
repositories as you want without ever adding more lines to your httpd.conf.

We don't use the SVNParentPath but each repositories, although they are all in 
the same place, have its own  with SVNPath. We found this allows for 
better configuration, especially as they all have slightly different 
requirements.

We've been using it for 5 years, without any problem.

That is how we have configured our system, with SVNParentPaths under
each  so that new repositories appear in the department's list
automagically.  We still need to manually create new repositories but
that's not a heavy admin burden.

I've not had any problems yet and hope that this will help to isolate
any future problems to a minimum of projects...
