@riannella > I assume there is no change you are now proposing for the IM or Vocab? well, she agreed to [your proposal:](https://github.com/w3c/poe/issues/191#issuecomment-313291889) > I agree with riannella, it is possible to model those use cases (stream music with later payment, congestion area, nurse in the hospital) **by introducing a new Rule called obligation with its own lifecycle.** In principle, this new Rule can be used in the already existing Policy Types. and I actually like the idea of having "Obligation" as new type of rule, i.e. differentiating between policy/permission-level duties, as it would help addressing a lot of issues/inconsistencies of the current IM, such as: 1. Constraints on permissions/prohibitions behave differently than constraints on duties + Constraints on Perm/Proh: > For a Rule, if the Constraint is satisfied then the action becomes effective for the enclosing Rule. + Constraints on Duties: > Such business rules MAY be expressed through additional Constraints. For example, a Policy may state that you can play a music file for a payment of $5.00. 2. @riannella: "_Policies need to have consistent Rules processing._" (https://github.com/w3c/poe/issues/162#issuecomment-310278825) 3. @riannella: "_My concern is that I don't want the semantics of Duty to change depending on **where** it is in the Policy_." (https://github.com/w3c/poe/issues/162#issuecomment-311258097) ------------ **Proposal:** 1. Add **Obligation** as new subclass of Rule (alongside Perm/Proh/Duty) 2. Allow only Perm/Proh/Obligation on policy-level 3. Allow only Duties on permission-level 4. Constraints on Obligations have the same semantics as the ones on Perm/Proh. tbd: how to handle constraints that specify **how** an action must be performed. -- GitHub Notification of comment by simonstey Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/poe/issues/191#issuecomment-315283129 using your GitHub account
