+From the CAPI 2.0 specification:
+COMMON-ISDN-API (CAPI) is an application programming interface standard used
+to access ISDN equipment connected to basic rate interfaces (BRI) and primary
+rate interfaces (PRI).

 Kernel CAPI operates as a dispatching layer between CAPI applications and CAPI
 hardware drivers. Hardware drivers register ISDN devices (controllers, in CAPI
 lingo) with Kernel CAPI to indicate their readiness to provide their service
