-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Shared Memory Allocation</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+OSSP mm is a 2-layer abstraction library which simplifies the usage of shared
+memory between forked (and this way strongly related) processes under Unix
+platforms. On the first layer it hides all platform dependent implementation
+details (allocation and locking) when dealing with shared memory segments and
+on the second layer it provides a high-level malloc(3)-style API for a
+convenient and well known way to work with data-structures inside those shared
+memory segments.

<title>OSSP val</title>
-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Value Access</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+OSSP val is a flexible name to value mapping library for C variables. It is a
+companion library to <a href="../var/">OSSP var</a>. It allows one to access
+C variables through name strings, although the C language does neither provide
+such a dedicated facility nor an evaluation construct (which could be used to
+implement such a facility easily).
+
+In general, this is used for accessing C variables without having to know the
+actual symbol/address/reference. The typical use cases are in combination with
+flexible configuration parsing and supporting loosly-coupled DSO-based module
+architectures.

<title>OSSP var</title>
-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Variable Expansion</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+OSSP var is a very sophisticated and fast variable construct expansion
+library. It supports the usual scripting language style variable syntax
+(<tt>${name}</tt>, <tt>$(name)</tt>, <tt>%{name}</tt>, etc.) and
+provides both simple scalar and array expansion and post-operations
+on the expanded value. The supported post-operations are length
+determination, case conversion, defaults, postive and negative
+alternatives, sub-strings, regular expression based substitutions,
+character translations, padding and even nested iterations over array
+variables. The actual value lookup is performed through as callback
+function, so OSSP var can expand arbitrary values.

<title>OSSP xds</title>
-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Extensible Data Serialization</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+The purpose of OSSP xds is to encode data in a way that allows this
+data to be exchanged between different computer systems. Assume you
+would want to transfer the value 0x1234 from host A to host B. Then you
+would encode it using B<OSSP xds>, transfer the encoded data over the
+network, and decode the value again at the other end. Every program that
+follows this process will read the correct value no matter what native
+representation is uses internally.
+
+<p>
+OSSP xds consists of three components: The generic encoding and decoding
+framework, a set of engines to encode and decode values in a certain format,
+and a run-time context, which is used to manage buffers, registered engines,
+etc.
