How to take control of the drupal access control mechanism in a easy and unobtrusive way!

What will you see :

Content Access module
* Add permissions to content types/nodes for specific roles to view/edit it instead of the less flexible content type permissions
* Some nice tweaks that make life easy
* What are all those settings and why can I not get it?

ACL module
* What is it? Why do I need it?
* WHy doesn't it provide a GUI?
* What does it contain and why should I look at this as a Drupal developer
* So, in which case should I use it? For example you have a very fine grained access control system and in some nodes people have different permissions. This and much more!

Hands on! Let's take a look at an example module
* Give you the possibility to leverage the drupal system easily

This and much more
