A comment:
"policy" may be still confusing.
How about "policy element"?

Subject
[xacml] "policy"
= Policy or PolicySet?









Our glossary defines "Policy" and "PolicySet",
but there is no

generic term that includes both.  I notice places in Section 7

that refer to just "policy" and other places that specifically

say "Policy or PolicySet", so I don't think we are consistent.


In the interests of brevity, Could we add the following to

the glossary, and try to use it whenever both "Policy" and

"PolicySet" are implied?


  policy - In this specification, the uncapitalized term "policy"

  refers to both XACML Policy and PolicySet instances.


Tim, you may have a better proposal.  Or there may even be a

hidden consistency that I have missed :-)
