Re: [poe] 3.1.1 Policy Conflict

The section about policy conflict strategies now includes following example:

> For example, one Policy stated that Assignee Fred had been granted an "exclusive" distribution Permission, and the other Policy said the same for Assignee Mary. In the same Policy, conflicts can also arise when the same Action is used in a Permission and a Prohibition. 

where _"Assignee Fred had been granted an "exclusive" distribution Permission, and the other Policy said the same for Assignee Mary."_ refers to a conflict arising between **two permissions** (due to their duty to [`odrl:ensureExclusivity`](https://w3c.github.io/poe/vocab/#term-ensureExclusivity)).

How would such a conflict be resolved for policies having `perm/prohibit` as conflict resolution strategies?

> - If a Policy has the conflict attribute of perm then any conflicting Permission Rule MUST overide the Prohibition Rule and continue with the Policy as valid.  
> - If a Policy has the conflict attribute of prohibit then any conflicting Prohibition Rule MUST overide the Permission Rule and continue with the Policy as valid.
