RE: new version of arch

I like the way you are using the simplified diagrams.  I assume,
however, that you are going to add one for the Resource Model?

I also have to admit that as many times as I have seen it, I don't yet
understand the meaning of the arrows (the fat ones) in the diagram that
includes all four models.  Are there verbs or phrases that can be
attached to those arrows as in other diagrams?  Is the verb or phrase
always the same?  If so, it cannot be something like "abstracts" or "is
more general than" which implies some sort of hierarchy or ordering,
because Policy > Service > Message > Policy.   Similar for
Policy/Resouce/Service.  Can't imply or involve ordering.

And then there is the fact that ONE pairing of models doesn't have an
arrow in either direction.  Obviously I'm supposed to understand
something from that -- but I really don't.

I have checked in a new version of the arch doc:

1. I have removed the concepts relating to management from concepts and 
relationships (C&R)
2. I have added to the front of the C&R section simplified diagrams of 
the models
