Restrict access to category based on member role/group membership?
What would be the best way to restrict access to a category based on the member's role/group membership?
I see there is a built in way to restrict based on amount of karma, but is there already an easy way to restrict based on group? If not where would you suggest I start?
In the category and topic usercontrols, they both have a premissions check for Karma to see if the user has enough to access and post. I would add a check there if you need one, look up the current member and then see choose whether the group he is in has access.

Thank you for your prompt response and pointing me in the right direction Lee :) Sounds like I should be able to do this with minimal effort.
