(How) is this module different from the http://drupal.org/project/abt?
I'm using that one currently , and works very nicely.

Searching for a user based access control like google+ circles. Found abt and this module and interested to know the differences between.

My understanding is that Term Access will allow multiple access combinations. Eg If I have 2 terms "milk" and "bread", I can tag both terms on a node. If the user has both terms tagged, they will get access, if they only have one term tagged they will be denied.

In ABT you can't do this (I don't think)... If the user has either "milk" or "bread", they will get access. For me this is no good, as I want to restrict access unless the user has ALL the same terms as the node.

In theory this sounds great - In practice, the module doesn't seem to be able to work properly yet :) I'll wait till it is out of dev

This is exactly what I need, so an AND/OR option would be a nive feature to accoodate both our needs.

If you want OR access, you can make use of TAC (role access), TAC lite (Role + user) or Access by Term.

It's the AND access that this module does and others don't :)

If this module support mapping term_reference field then it's great.
