I am really interested in the functionality of this module!

However, I am running D5 and would like to backport this module to D5.
Would this be a difficult task?
Could someone with reasonable Drupal knowledge do it or do you have to be an OG Access expert?

bonobo already explained that there are no official plans to do this:

Backporting would be difficult because the OG Access Roles depends upon this nice little og_access feature of letting other modules alter grants in og_access_node_access_records():

<?php
  if (!empty($grants)) {
    // Allow other modules to change the grants.
    drupal_alter('og_access_grants', $grants, $node);
    return $grants;
  }
?>

Last time I looked this didn't exist in the 5.x version(s) of og_access.

Upgrade the site to 6!

Let me know if you come up with any ideas on patching the 5.x version of og_access.

Thanks,

If someone wants to backport this to D5, please do, but at this point we are looking at D6 and D7 only.
