Our work is primary aimed at making the 1.9 release which will be the beta of the 2.0, which will support templating... 90% of our time goes toward that goal.
The other 10% is bug solving in the prior releases.

I don't imagine the user group system needed for implementing a proper permission system becoming available until about 1 month from now or so.

If you need it now, go ahead and hack away at a solution Smile

My suggestion would be to create a table forum_perms with 4 fields:

id (auto_increment)
user_id INT
forum_id INT
access ENUM('Y','N');

And then run a query on this table whenever a user tries to access a certain forum.

This I believe is a better system then what you suggest since your system would require an entry inside the fud_users table for each forum, which is BAD if you have many forums.

If you want to optimize your code, you could add "strict ENUM('Y','N') to the fud_forum table. And only perform the additional check inside forum_perms table is strict field is set to Y. This would save a query on most pages, since I suspect you may only have 1 or 2 private forums while all other forums will not be private.
