We haven't added documentation to the wiki yet, but there is inline
documentation in the source with another example:

http://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/chef/lib/chef/handler.rb

FYI, that 'def_delegator' stuff is just a fancy way to make a method like:

  def start_time
    @run_status.start_time
  end

So you can use them like a regular method.
