/admin/settings/taxonomy_access contains radio buttons to enable/disable the taxonomy_access module. how is this different from the normal enabling in the /admin/modules list? our team was quite confused by the inconsistency, that apparently it has to be enabled in both places. i think this setting should be removed.

The two page does two completely different task.

Setting page is necessary to write values into table 'node_access'.
(This cannot be done w/ the module's page) It may be removed in later version when hook_install/uninstall is introduced to drupal. (If you see, other access type modules, it is the same for them)

Anyway, it is just one click, not very complicated to do.

i appreciate the technical explanation. from a UI point of view, the difference is not apparent. perhaps the text on the settings page could be changed to say something more substantive.

Changed terminology on settings page from Enable/Disable to Activate/Deactivate.
