Re: Client policy processing

I would say this is all optional, as the client may not have assess to its
own policy or the ability to actually process the policy (limited device).
i get worried that if we don't have absence means negation that we will
wind up in spots where it will be hard or impossible to know the actual
policy that was in effect.

Is it correct to say:

1. Client has access to its own policy, the provider policy and the
result of intersection which it performed
2. Result of intersection is a policy in its own right, and has no
implicit meaning other than what is stated in that policy (with its
own vocabulary)
HOWEVER
3. Client can interpret that result-of-intersection policy together
with provider policy to infer acceptable interactions with provider,
based on vocabulary present in provider policy.

Thus the policy that results from intersection itself does not say
negation, but it can be inferred from that policy taken in
conjunction with provider policy.

Is this an approach toward making this less confusing?

Thanks
