Hi

Simith was correct about the draft.
draft-ietf-simple-presence-rules-04 (Presence Authorization Rules)
defines a format for presence authorization
Policy. 
Also, draft-ietf-geopriv-common-policy-06 gives a framework for
representing authorization policies. This draft is the basis for
presence authorization Policy as well.

subscriptions

Sudhir,
Thanks. However, this is not the scenario I am talking about. In this
case, A publishes its event package to Presence server P. If B wants to
subscribes to A's event package, it subscribes to P (which acts on
behalf of A).

Now, the only way A knows if B is subscribing to its event package is to
subscribe using watcher info. The RFC provides a way in which P can
NOTIFY A that B is subscribing to the package. However, it does not
discuss a mechanism where A can "instruct" P to deny the subscription
(in other words, P does not have enough authentication information to
allow this particular user B).
