+Route Matching
+==============
+
+Route table
+-----------
+
+    Kapow! maintains a route table as provided by the user, and uses it to determine
+    which handler should an incoming request be dispatched to.
+
+    Each incoming request is matched against the routes in the route table in
+    strict order, for each route in the route table, the criteria are checked.
+    If the request does not match, the next route in the route list is examined.
