+/**
+ * A Java access control list (ACL) is a group of individual ACL entries.
+ * These entries consist of a <code>Principal</code> and a list of
+ * permissions this <code>Principal</code> is either granted or denied.
+ * A given <code>Principal</code> can have at most one positive ACL entry
+ * (i.e., one that grants permissions) and one negative ACL entry (i.e., one
+ * that denies permissions).  If a given permission is both granted and
+ * denied, the ACL treats it as if it were never granted or denied.  If
+ * both a <code>Principal</code> and a <code>Group</code> to which the
+ * <code>Principal</code> belongs have an ACL entry, the permissions for
+ * the individual <code>Principal</code> take precedence over the 
+ * permissions of the <code>Group</code> if there is a conflict.
+ * <p>
+ * Additionally, the ACL interface extends the <code>Owner</code> interface
+ * and so an ACL has owners.  Actions which modify the ACL are restricted
+ * to owners.
