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

I already released
I already released http://drupal.org/project/workbench_access as well (about 3 days prior to yours).
It's a pluggable access control hierarchy that supports Taxonomy and Menu.

Node Access
Hi Ken,
I had a look at Workbench Access. It looks good and well done on the documentation.
I see that it does not provide access control for viewing content, but only editors/administrators.
Access control for viewing is a requirement for me, so it looks like I have to continue my development.
cheers,

Hello,
Here it is, I've exported it for you: http://agilesparkle.com/tacl.zip . Bear in mind that I've decided to kill the project, the documentation is already deleted.
cheers,
Tomasz Muras
Why you have decided to kill the project?
I have installed the module and it works fine,
There are so many node access modules, but none with a dependency of profile2
How ever i have suggestion if you have spare time,
What I am looking for is a taxonomy access control,which is dynamic, Dynamic in the sense, The node access is granted if he has a matching term reference in his/her profile2 , if he doesn't the term reference then he would not be able to access that node/content.
My requirement is I have role recruiter who posts a job using content type "job per template."
* has Profile 2 profile which has 2 field collection fields 1. Work experience a multi value field collection filed,which has skills_field a term reference field - using hierarchical select field saving the deepest term 2. Experiences field which is also term reference field .ex.0-1 year ,1-2 years
My requirement is The applicant should only be able to access the jobs which matches his/her "current" skills and experience.
If the skills are changed he/she should not be able to access the job
Let me know if you need more details to understand.
"access to specific content" matching the fields of :"pofile2 fileds"
Problem areas:
* the node access/ term access modules depend on core profile in D7, where as core profile is deprecated in D7
The hierarchical thing is more important, there is no module which can do this as the entity system is new
Thanks
Venky
I've decided not to continue
I've decided not to continue because it didn't get the acceptance to become a full project - see http://drupal.org/node/1098072 . The feedback was also extremely slow & I gave up after a while.
If you get that pushed forward I could consider working on it again.
@kaizerking I think
@kaizerking I think http://drupal.org/project/abt might be what you need
