Description: the definition for policy vocabulary is inconsistent as applied in
the context of the policy expression post intersection because the vocabulary
of the input policies may have more assertion types than that post
intersection, leaving the semantics of absence is negation (AIN) or "will not
be applied" in question.

This email:
http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-ws-policy/2007May/0029.html provides
an example of the impact.

Proposal: this email provides a proposed change to the framework spec to remove
the terms policy vocabulary and policy alternative vocabulary and modify the
text that applies to "will not be applied".
