This adds the basic framework for registering and using default policy rules. Rules should be defined and returned from a module in nova/policies/, and then added to the list in nova/policies/__init__.py. A new context.can() method has been added for policy enforcement of registered rules. It has the same parameters as the enforce() method currently being used. To establish the full pattern for usage the policy checks in the servers API module have been registered and converted to the new usage. Now that some policy checks are registered they're being used properly by tests. Some tests have been updated so that the instance project_id matches the context project_id in order to pass the 'admin_or_owner' check.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
Developers wishing to work on the OpenStack Nova project should always base their work on the latest Nova code, available from the master GIT repository at:
