Thank you all. I’ve merged it into a new ‘wip’ branch for now and pushed it up.

I am probably most familiar with openaz-pep than other modules, since I was 
closely involved in putting in together. The pep API was originally part of 
legacy OpenLiberty OpenAz. The intent was to provide a simple Java centric API 
that developers can easily adopt without having to know the intricacies of 
XACML. So, when we speak about a “Hello World” for openaz, I think this fits 
right in :)  Before being ported over to apache, it went through a major 
redesign but retained some of the core ideas. There’s lots of room for 
improvement and hopefully that will happen with more eyes on it.

Regarding the pull request - the changes that matter are mostly around Subject, 
Action and Resource classes and their respective mappers. It looks like a bit 
of clean up was done, some test policy files renamed and their references 
updated. This is contributing to number of files affected. 

Anyway, I am following up with Dirk about one minor item regarding configurable 
subject, action and resource attribute ids. It’s highly likely that the 
existing implementation of this feature may have caused some confusion. 

Thanks,
Ajith
