This is the consequence of a proposal that is not following the standardized terminology (IETF - RFC) for any Policy-based System:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3198

Well, I did bring  this point during the Hong Kong Summit but as you can see my comments were totally ignored:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbOFxAoibZbJmDWx1oOrOsDcov6Cuom5aaBIrupCD9E/edit

I clearly saw this kind of issues coming. Let me quote myself what I suggested: "For instance: "endpoints" should be "enforcement point"

I do not understand why GBP did not include this suggestion...

What I was referring to was also not Keystone's definition of an endpoint. It's almost as if the term has many uses and was not invented for Keystone. :-)

Did a similar discussion occur when Heat wanted to use the word 'template' since this was clearly already in use by Horizon?

Given that, pointing to the Nova parity work seems a bit like a red
herring. This new API is being developed orthogonally to the existing
API endpoints

You see how you used the term endpoints there? :P
