[XCON] CPCP Issue 24: Meta Policy as separate document

[hisham.khartabil at nokia.com]

Many actions are defined that dictate the privileges for users in a conference:

<allow-modify-settings>
<allow-modify-information>
<allow-modify-time>
<allow-modify-authorization-rules>
<allow-modify-dol>
<allow-modify-rl>
<allow-modify-sc>
<allow-modify-fp>
<allow-modify-ms>
<allow-sidebar>
<allow-modify-dil>

Should such a policy be defined in a separate document?
The separate document indicates the privileged users and their privileges.

Advantages:
- Reduces conference policy complexity
- Separates the manipulation rules of the conference policy from the conference policy itself

Disadvantages:
- Many of the conditions have to be repeated in this new document. For example: <has-been-in-conference>. Or should this just be using identity? (I.e. privileges are only assigned for identities)
- A user has to create and manipulate 2 documents.

There was no objection to separating the document. Also the proposal that meta policy will use only identities had no objections

Regards,
Hisham
