Upon registering, my users choose from certain taxonomy tags to assign to their profile. For example, if they choose the taxonomy term 'Los Angeles', I would want them auto-subscribed to the 'Los Angeles' group which was also assigned to that same taxonomy term when the group was created.

This would greatly enhance the module and I would even pay for the development that could do this, depending on the price. I'm sure other users with groups tied to taxonomy would find this essential.

How much development on top of this module would be needed?

An interesting idea- I take it you're using some solution for profiles as nodes? What modules are you using? When/how do users select those taxonomy terms?

Essentially this requires a unique mapping of terms to groups. This would require a substantial re-write of this module -do you also use/want the mandatory group feature?

i'm using nodeprofile, usernode and nodefamily to achieve this. The user selects the taxonomy during creation of a certain content type that is then embedded in their usernode.

Please view the discussion at: http://drupal.org/node/100900 maybe yo ucan provide some help to achieve the solution?

Hmmm, I just took a look at that discussion. I think you misunderstand- when nevets says "research" it means understanding the code/API. Anyhow, this looks like a rather messy situation. Why use the category module instead of taxonomy?

I'm going to end up with 1000s of vocabulary items and the category module provided the best way to create that hierarchy using ajax 'activeselect' module to allow for dynamic creation of child vocabularies dependent on parent category selection.

And I know he meant to understand the code/api/tables. I was just trying to offer any help that I could. I'm hoping he'll be able to help me out in one facet or another. He laid the ground work for the code or even a new module all-together...
