boolean	canIndependentlyExpire() return true if this meta can expire independently of its dependencies
IURMeta[]	getCostDependenciesRecursive() get recursive list of cost dependencies
IURMeta[]	getDirectDependencies() return an array of direct dependencies of this resource
IURMeta[]	getExpiryDependenciesRecursive() get recursive list of expiry dependencies
int	getLocalCreationCost() return local cost for this resource without cost of its dependencies
