---------------------------

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:

Who: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>

---------------------------

What: ACPI procfs interface
When: July 2008
Why: ACPI sysfs conversion should be finished by January 2008.
ACPI procfs interface will be removed in July 2008 so that
there is enough time for the user space to catch up.
When: July 2007
Why: After ACPI sysfs conversion, ACPI attributes will be duplicated
in sysfs and the ACPI procfs interface should be removed.
Who: Zhang Rui <rui.zhang@intel.com>
