Re: [poe] 1.4 Terminology

Here is my proposal (everything is defined in the singular):

Policy - A Rule expressing what Action is allowed and/or disallowed over an Asset.
Rule - A Permission, Prohibition or Duty that expresses an Action that may, must not, and must be performed (respectively),
Action - An operation that is applicable to an Asset
Permission - An Action that may be performed over an Asset.
Prohibition - An Action that must not be performed over an Asset.
Duty - An Action that must be performed as a requirement for the applicable Permission to become valid.
Asset - An identifiable resource that is the subject of the Rule.
Party - An identifiable entity who may undertake a Role in the Policy.
Constraint - The context, such as limitations, restrictions, or interpretations, that must be applied to an Action.
