Comments.Text: Zac - don't quite understand your question. We have done custom work so that eg when you create an Event it sets up an OG, and when someone signs up for the Event via civi gets added to the OG. But I don't think we were able to publish the work at the time. Can't recall if it was all done via Rules - I don't think so.

  I think the better solution is via Drupal Rules as per this pretty ancient blog

  I know that since then we have rolled up modules for clients that deliver the various integrations along the lines of
  
  * if Event has custom field = X then create an OG
  * if a person with Event participant role Y is added to Event make then the OG Admin
  * if a person registers for the event then create user (if not already have one) and add them to the OG.
