+<title>Modules</title>
+<para>
+Linux is modular. Its modules may be inserted and removed at will, making it
+very flexible. Modules may be device drivers and may work as many other
+funciotns as well, like filesystems, network protocols, power management
+policies, etc.

+<title>Mechanism and Policy</title>
+<para>
+Drivers should provide mechanism. As in many other cases, splitting mechanism
+and policy is desirable. In the case of kernel code, this is no exception.
+Kernel space code and user space code are good split points to provide that
+separation.
