Re: [poe] ODRL Processor & Test Suite

Process of validation is seperate from evaluation

ODRL Validator = check for conformance of the policy that is meets the ODRL IM (spec) requirements

ODRL Evaluator = determines whether the permissions and prohibitions of a policy are in effect
(based on the ODRL Validator conformance)

(add to the terminology)

Update IM to make clear where Validation and Evaluation occurs.
The latter when some external "black box" is referred to to resolve a constraint/duty

"black box" - checking that a constraint has been satisfied.
- external constraint checking system 

1. An ODRL Validator that checks that the ODRL is correct.
2. An ODRL Evaluator that determines whether or not a particular permission/obligation is in effect.
3. A Constraint Checker. This is any system that is able to return a satisfied/not satisfied response to the ODRL Evaluator
