Yes, I think it does. I don't think there's much point implementing  
any protocols and not documenting them really; I was considering  
writing a decent protocol/JEP for the chess plugin I wrote for Psi (I  
used something hacky at the time as I was in a hurry and it was a  
proof-of-concept). If someone else comes up with a nice protocol, I  
could implement that in the Psi plugin instead (although, as I note  
jChess is written in Qt4 too, it might be easier for me to just  
rewrite the plugin using jChess :))
