+--------------------------
+
+.. automodule:: repoze.bfg.events
+
+  .. autoclass:: NewRequest
+
+  .. autoclass:: NewResponse
+
+You can write *listeners* for these event types and subsequently
+register the listeners to be called when the events occur.  For
+example, if you create event listener functions in a ``listeners.py``
+file in your application like so:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+   :linenos:
+
+   def handle_new_request(event):
+       print 'request', event.request   
+
+   def handle_new_response(event):
+       print 'response', event.response
+
+You may configure these functions to be called at the appropriate
+times by adding the following to your application's ``configure.zcml``
+file:
+
+.. code-block:: xml
+   :linenos:
+
+   <subscriber
+      for="repoze.bfg.interfaces.INewRequest"
+      handler=".listeners.handle_new_request"
+    />
+
+   <subscriber
+      for="repoze.bfg.interfaces.INewResponse"
+      handler=".listeners.handle_new_response"
+    />
+
+This causes the functions as to be registered as event listeners
+within the :term:`application registry` .  Under this configuration,
+when the application is run, every new request and every response will
+be printed to the console.
+
+The return value of a listener function is ignored.
