<title>OSSP pcre</title>
-<h1>...</h1>
+<h1>Perl Compatible Regular Expressions</h1>
<h2>Abstract</h2>
+OSSP pcre is a derivative of Philip Hazel's <a
+href="http://www.pcre.org/">PCRE</a> library for matching text via
+Perl-compatible regular expressions. OSSP pcre additionally contains the
+function pcre_match(3) which provides a very convinience way to apply a
+regular expression, including caching support.
+
+<p>
+Notice: OSSP pcre is fully compatible with the original PCRE library. It is
+just a super-set of it and made into an OSSP library for easier integration
+within the OSSP project. It is not intended to replace or to compete with the
+original PCRE library in any way.
