Eddy, there's an overview, it's at:
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Observation+Module

What's missing IMO is that each Module needs to document what Events it creates 
and thus what event can be consumed by others. It's up to each module to 
document that.

For example the Model module should document all the model events 
(add/update/delete for all Entities). Right now we have 2 model modules: 
xwiki-platform-oldcore and xwiki-platform-model.
Right now we have 
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Model+Module and we could 
either add doc for the oldcore there too or (better) create an oldcore module 
on e.x.o.

Thanks
