 ---------------------------
 
-What:	/sys/firmware/acpi/namespace
-When:	2.6.21
-Why:	The ACPI namespace is effectively the symbol list for
-	the BIOS.  The device names are completely arbitrary
-	and have no place being exposed to user-space.
-
-	For those interested in the BIOS ACPI namespace,
-	the BIOS can be extracted and disassembled with acpidump
-	and iasl as documented in the pmtools package here:
-	http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/lenb/acpi/utils
-Who:	Len Brown <len.brown@xxxxxxxxx>
-
----------------------------
-
 What:	ACPI procfs interface
 When:	Jan 2008
 Why:	After ACPI sysfs conversion, ACPI attributes will be duplicated
