I am keeping seperate the Normal Access Policies and Delegation Policies
(Whether Administrative or User Issued). So if an Access Request comes.
-- First it will be matched against a Normal Access policy or policies.
-- Suppose if there is "permit", ofcourse i dont need to check the
Delegation policies then (Agreed).
-- but if result is Deny (this is important) or notApplicable, then i will
have to look at the Delegation policies. here i think i am not getting you
when you only mention notApplicable and leave Deny. The thing is that it is
possible that a role is completely denied accessing an operation from Normal
Access policies, but delegation policies allows it. Thats why, i think so in
case of both NotApplicable and Deny, PDP will query the Delegation policies.
