Yeah, it's basically just

 - an XML file describing the interface, just like this
   http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=users/david/DeviceKit-disks.git;a=blob;h=f961193583407444a4452773e9fe032797b699a7;hb=61fd98cfa4478e4a564b5cf225e4100f002ee650;f=src/org.freedesktop.DeviceKit.Disks.Device.xml
 - which is used to autogenerate something like this
   http://hal.freedesktop.org/docs/DeviceKit-disks/Device.html
 - Some daemon code just like in DeviceKit-disks to trawl sysfs values
   and set properties.

It's really simple and clean code. The code is on some machine at home
powered off (I haven't touched it for several weeks); let me clean it up
and post it tonight or tomorrow.
