iChat is using Jabber for internet chat also.

The protocol for local messaging is described here:
http://www.jabber.org/jeps/jep-0174.html
But i don't know really well that protocol.

I'm not very familiar with mDNS and co
I don't know if it should be in another protocol, or in Jabber.


I think that the psi team recently added support for that in psi (which use 
the same library as kopete)


I wish you will realize that protcol
