Re: NEW ISSUE [Primer] : Update references to interoperability in Ignorable Policy Expressions section

Hi Fabian

Thanks for that clarification. I misunderstood you referring to the fact that it was not necessarily the actual client doing the 
intersection hence my reply was a bit too resolute :-)
I reckon what you mentioned is a useful piece of info which in itself go to the primer to some short section describing various ways 
on how a client can get to the effective policy which needs to be used during the communication...

Cheers, Sergey

I'm fine with adding that statement. My only objection was to using
terms that are undefined and ill understood.
