   A side note on clarity:
   Lisa Week notes
>>Yes -- ALLOW ACEs are alternate file access control, and DENY ACEs  
>>are additional file access control.
>>
>>>It is important to understand how POSIX defines additional file  
>>>access control mechanisms

   It would be A Good Thing, when defining the terms in the
draft RFC, to introduce this equivalence as early as possible.

   I picked it up from context about half-way though the
discussion and had to go back and re-read the previous material
to be sure I hadn't been reasoning from bad premises.
