[Odrl-version2] Core Model: relationship between Action and Duty

Hi Renato

OK, then I do have a problem with this. I think that "an Action can have 
one Permission" is wrong. There could be several permissions with the 
same action but with different constraints. Or please explain how the 
Core Model will enable such multiple constraints to be expressed without 
needing to use extensions.

Regards,

Francis

I may simply be showing my ignorance of how to interpret UML diagrams. :o) I understand the '1' at the Action end of each association, but I don't understand the '1' at the other end in each case.
