Could someone please explain the signal system?

I'm looking at trying to move at least some stuff to components, and I'm trying to figure out how the signal system works. I can't seem to find any documentation on it, and I need to know what I'm doing in order to have components communicate with each other. Could someone please explain the signal system?

Perhaps you could bring T2D's behavior system over and use that - the behaviors are derived from simComponent and they implement inter-behavior events. See Torque2D/engine/source/component/behaviors/ for details.
Unless you're just looking for a message system - then use an EventManager.

I'm not sure what signal system you're talking about in components. They have registered interfaces, but I don't see anything in there having to do with "signals".Perhaps you could bring T2D's behavior system over and use that - the behaviors are derived from simComponent and they implement inter-behavior events.

I don't know that the component system is complete. Last I heard it was a WIP.
@GG,
Is this true?
