I have some membership-based forums--works very nice with vB. How do I do this with Links Directory? It looks like the options are only private or open to all? Is there some setting I'm not seeing?

e.g.,

I have three forums: A, B, C

A is accessible without registration

B is accessible only when registered and granted permission for that group

C is like B, but a different group with a different forum

I like this ability to do membership-based forums (content management)

Can I do this with Links Directory? It seems the privacy setting if activated for groups B and C would allow them to see each others links. I would like to keep this separate?

Currently there is only an option to allow/disallow usergroups to view private directories. I will be adding directory permissions (similar to vB's forum permissions) in the future... I'm seriously considering adding this in RC2, but can't make any promises.

I'll wait for RC3 then. I'm trying to do content managment with private forums for two groups and finding the ability to do that with links very interesting (and it seems powerful).
