+      ## The environment is required to include these variables
+      ## (adopted from PEP333), except when they'd be empty, but see
+      ## below.
+
+      ## <tt>REQUEST_METHOD</tt>:: The HTTP request method, such as
+      ##                           "GET" or "POST". This cannot ever
+      ##                           be an empty string, and so is
+      ##                           always required.
+
+      ## <tt>SCRIPT_NAME</tt>:: The initial portion of the request
+      ##                        URL's "path" that corresponds to the
+      ##                        application object, so that the
+      ##                        application knows its virtual
+      ##                        "location". This may be an empty
+      ##                        string, if the application corresponds
+      ##                        to the "root" of the server.
+
+      ## <tt>PATH_INFO</tt>:: The remainder of the request URL's
+      ##                      "path", designating the virtual
+      ##                      "location" of the request's target
+      ##                      within the application. This may be an
+      ##                      empty string, if the request URL targets
+      ##                      the application root and does not have a
+      ##                      trailing slash. This value may be
+      ##                      percent-encoded when I originating from
+      ##                      a URL.
+
+      ## <tt>QUERY_STRING</tt>:: The portion of the request URL that
+      ##                         follows the <tt>?</tt>, if any. May be
+      ##                         empty, but is always required!
+
+      ## <tt>SERVER_NAME</tt>, <tt>SERVER_PORT</tt>:: When combined with <tt>SCRIPT_NAME</tt> and <tt>PATH_INFO</tt>, these variables can be used to complete the URL. Note, however, that <tt>HTTP_HOST</tt>, if present, should be used in preference to <tt>SERVER_NAME</tt> for reconstructing the request URL.  <tt>SERVER_NAME</tt> and <tt>SERVER_PORT</tt> can never be empty strings, and so are always required.
+
+      ## <tt>HTTP_</tt> Variables:: Variables corresponding to the
+      ##                            client-supplied HTTP request
+      ##                            headers (i.e., variables whose
+      ##                            names begin with <tt>HTTP_</tt>). The
+      ##                            presence or absence of these
+      ##                            variables should correspond with
+      ##                            the presence or absence of the
+      ##                            appropriate HTTP header in the
+      ##                            request. See <a href="https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3875#section-4.1.18">
+      ##                            RFC3875 section 4.1.18</a> for specific behavior.
+
+      ## In addition to this, the Rack environment must include these
+      ## Rack-specific variables:
+
+      ## <tt>rack.version</tt>:: The Array representing this version of Rack. See Rack::VERSION, that corresponds to the version of this SPEC.
+      ## <tt>rack.url_scheme</tt>:: +http+ or +https+, depending on the request URL.
+      ## <tt>rack.input</tt>:: See below, the input stream.
+      ## <tt>rack.errors</tt>:: See below, the error stream.
+      ## <tt>rack.multithread</tt>:: true if the application object may be simultaneously invoked by another thread in the same process, false otherwise.
+      ## <tt>rack.multiprocess</tt>:: true if an equivalent application object may be simultaneously invoked by another process, false otherwise.
+      ## <tt>rack.run_once</tt>:: true if the server expects (but does not guarantee!) that the application will only be invoked this one time during the life of its containing process. Normally, this will only be true for a server based on CGI (or something similar).
+      ## <tt>rack.hijack?</tt>:: present and true if the server supports connection hijacking. See below, hijacking.
+      ## <tt>rack.hijack</tt>:: an object responding to #call that must be called at least once before using rack.hijack_io. It is recommended #call return rack.hijack_io as well as setting it in env if necessary.
+      ## <tt>rack.hijack_io</tt>:: if rack.hijack? is true, and rack.hijack has received #call, this will contain an object resembling an IO. See hijacking.
+      ##
+
+      ## Additional environment specifications have approved to
+      ## standardized middleware APIs.  None of these are required to
+      ## be implemented by the server.
+
+      ## <tt>rack.session</tt>:: A hash like interface for storing request session data.
+      ##                         The store must implement:
+      if session = env['rack.session']
+        ##                         store(key, value)         (aliased as []=);

+        assert("session #{session.inspect} must respond to clear") {
+          session.respond_to?(:clear)
+        }
+      end
+
+      ## <tt>rack.logger</tt>:: A common object interface for logging messages.
+      ##                        The object must implement:
+      if logger = env['rack.logger']
+        ##                         info(message, &block)

+          ## The semantics of these IO methods must be a best effort match to

+    ## It is also possible to hijack a response after the status and headers

+      ## accepting an argument that conforms to the <tt>rack.hijack_io</tt>
+      ## protocol.
+      ## 
+      ## After the headers have been sent, and this hijack callback has been
+      ## called, the application is now responsible for the remaining lifecycle
+      ## of the IO. The application is also responsible for maintaining HTTP
+      ## semantics. Of specific note, in almost all cases in the current SPEC,
+      ## applications will have wanted to specify the header Connection:close in
+      ## HTTP/1.1, and not Connection:keep-alive, as there is no protocol for
+      ## returning hijacked sockets to the web server. For that purpose, use the
+      ## body streaming API instead (progressively yielding strings via each).
+      ## 
+      ## Servers must ignore the <tt>body</tt> part of the response tuple when
+      ## the <tt>rack.hijack</tt> response API is in use.

+    ## ==== Conventions
+    ## * Middleware should not use hijack unless it is handling the whole
+    ##   response.
+    ## * Middleware may wrap the IO object for the response pattern.
+    ## * Middleware should not wrap the IO object for the request pattern. The
+    ##   request pattern is intended to provide the hijacker with "raw tcp".
