/*
 * Steps to add a new prioritization policy:
 * 
 *  - Add a new value to the UpdatePrioritizationSchemes enum.
 *  - Specify this new value in the [InterestManagement] section of your
 *    OpenSim.ini. The name in the config file must match the enum value name
 *    (although it is not case sensitive).
 *  - Write a new GetPriorityBy*() method in this class.
 *  - Add a new entry to the switch statement in GetUpdatePriority() that calls
 *    your method.
