authorization external database

Hello. I want to use external database (e.x. MySQL) for authentication and storing access rights for Subversion. 
What is the best way to do it? Is it task for hooks, or I have to develop external module and somehow link it with subversion, or I need to rewrite some source code of Subversion?

That depends on wether you want to use svnserve or apache httpd to serve 
your repository. If you choose apache you could probably use 
mod_auth_mysql, I have not done this myself though.
