Description
Node Access Arbitrator written by merlinofchaos is a module API designed to allow multiple node access systems to work together.
As you maybe know this is a big problem in the drupal world of today.
It is not possible to let different node access modules work together.
Please convert your module to this API.
There are two example implementations where you can see how this could be done (workflow_access and forum_access)
Yours sincerely
Tobi

I have had many conversations with the author of Node Access Arbitrator and it does not do what many thinks it does. It provides an API for manipulating the node_access table, a good thing. It DOES not allow multiple node_access modules to work in tandem except through the default Drupal OR condition whcih is NOT what most people are looking for.
I am planining to use arbitrator's API in the future.
