At the moment it's possible to tick OG Audience check boxes so that the members of the selected OG(s) can view that node in their group or one can tick the public check box so anyone can see the node in the group(s) where it 'belongs'.
I'd like it very much if it would be possible to have 'limited public access' i.e. a check box that makes a node visible only for authenticated users (visually leaving it in the group it was published in). (Optionally all roles could be listed.)
In such a case it becomes possible to have e.g. a group that publishes articles on a specific subject (with a fitting theme etc) and they can have access to their own articles and make them available to all registered users on the site and make some articles publically available to entice people to register for more without needing to become members of the specific group.
This is my 1st feature request, so I hope it's in the right place.

og is about making things vsible to group subscribers. you want to layer on isibility for a role. thats handled by various other modules like private and simpleaccess. use those along with og (drupal5 required)

Thanks for the clear explanation! I'll have a look at those other modules (after updating my site)
