You and your friend's account must be "friend" at xmpp level, i.e. you
added your friend to your account with KDE Telepathy (or with any other
xmpp client), and your friend accepted you.

Not exactly, you will be able to play with any contact that has the same
"capability", i.e. that has KNavalBattle installed. Knowing my friends,
I won't have many with telepathy and KBattleShip installed, so it won't
be a long list ;)
If you think that this is a requirement, we can think about something
else, for example adding your friend to a group "KNavalBattle", and
filtering by group, or even using nepomuk tags...

Good question :)

I think that the library is in a very good shape from the "code" point
of view, but some cleanup in order to declare it "stable" is probably
required...
