[Terminology]

See my comments on Carol's terminology suggestions inline:

OMA uses two main player names "client" and "target object". I suggest to stick
to "target object" and use "target" as a short name for "target object." The
meaning is the same -- client of the HRAC.

Actually, John Barkley coined the term and I just began to use it. I want to
clarify that Access Decision Object is what the client invokes methods on and
the item which is called "access decision" on Bob's model.
