New policy proposals (take 2)

[Mark Canonical Ramm-Christensen]

+1 "pinning" becoming become policy
+1 on standard default file system locations
Tentative +1 on the "subordinates" infrastructure services thing -- I think
this needs a bit more meat on it's bones to be usable as a best practice.

Then for the testing bit, I am a huge +1 on getting
the necessary infrastructure in place to make that happen, and when it's
all in place and the exact details of a continuous integration gating
policy are available I expect that I would be a huge +1 on there too.
