We cannot make any firm commitments about the interfaces,
since they aer
designed for internal use, but they will only be changed if
there's a
real need for it.  As for documentation for the mce D-Bus
interfaces,
you can install mce-dev and read the documentation in the
*.h files.

There seem to be a DBUS request/reply used by
the battery applet to request current level, see here:

http://maemo.org/pipermail/maemo-developers/20
07-March/009300.html

Plus messages sent when the level changes.

However my question:

"I couldn't find documentation on the maemo site for
these bme/mce
messages, is the protocol I described considered stable (eg:
supported
for new releases)? Did I miss obvious messages or got wrong
semantics?"

Went unanswered, may be I should open a bugzilla for more
visibility?
