O’Reilly has just released chapter number eight of its webOS book:
ch 8 Chapter 8 of WebOS book released

The author describes the chapter as follows:

System services are those that are enabled by hardware features or provided by the Linux operating system. Hardware-enabled services include access to location services, and connection status. The OS provides alarms, sounds, power management, properties and time services.

As described in Chapter 7, the Mojo framework provides access to the System services, routing service requests to the specified services, and calling the application’s callback functions with the service response. As shown in Figure 8-1, all system services are actually managed by Linux-resident server processes. The servers receive service requests from the application and send messages back. The messages are routed to the application through the specified callback functions, whether fulfilling the request or providing a failure indication.
