Which drives to a conclusion, that generally kernel-developers (rightfully) dislike capital letters in file- and, even more so, in directory-names. And the only directories named with capitals are some arch-specifics, and Documentation. Well, was the latter named so to avoid using the doc(umentation) pattern?:-)
