snapshot event handling in server plugin

I have developed plugins that implement OperationAdvisors and OperationParticipants for work item save and changeset/baseline delivery operations ("com.ibm.team.workitem.operation.workItemSave" and "com.ibm.team.workitem.operation.workItemSave", resp).
I also need to support snapshot events. I have several questions, starting with:
I also need to support snapshot events. I have several questions, starting with:
-
What's the difference between "operations" and "events" with regard to Operation Behavior and Event Handling?
- Are there separate APIs for operations and events? If so, what is the API for events, and where are the event types enumerated (and, hopefully, documented)?
- Is there any information for event handling, similar to or along the lines of the RTC 3.x/4.x Extensions Workshops (https://jazz.net/library/article/634/, https://jazz.net/library/article/1000)?
- Any pointers into the client API classes that would help?
Thanks in advance for all suggestions, advice, etc.

For what it's worth, at various times I found info in client API docs that helped me, even on the server side, where it was often hard to find anything. I can't remember it that applied in this case, but I did eventually find a solution in which I subclassed IChangeEventHandler.
