Change 24156 by chris at chris_holly on 2003/01/24 15:53:02

	o Clean up grammar a bit.
	o Change the title of "Resource Classifications" to "Subjects and
	  Objects"
	o Clarify the definition of Security Policy.  Adam Migus reports that
	  some NAI meeting came to the conclusion that we should not refer
	  to security policies as resource managers.
