Hello Everyone,
I'm working on a new module for D7 that will extend access permissions based on taxonomy. The idea is based on an excellent Taxonomy Access Control. My goal is to create an API module - similar to ACL that will have all the features of Taxonomy Access Control and also Taxonomy Access Control Lite. Then (again just like in ACL) a different front-end modules could be created.
I've called the project "tacl" and it's currently available as a sandbox project: http://drupal.org/sandbox/tmuras/1079102. There is no UI (no "front-end" module yet) but the code already works. I've also started work on the documentation on http://tacl.zabuchy.net .
If you are interested in taxonomy based ACL module, please join in! You can have a look at the wiki & the code and comment on it. If you have any specific requirements for this module, please let me know as well. I would be also very happy to find co-maintainers.
cheers,
Tomasz Muras
