For Jetrix I mainly reverse engineered the protocol by catching the messages between the server and the client, I used the SOAP Tracer from the MS SOAP Toolkit for this but there are many other similar tools available.
Good luck, Emmanuel Bourg Jordi Mallach wrote:

GTetrinet has been written mainly by Ka-shu Wong and Daniel Carbonell, with help from others. Secondly, you're not the first person with the intention to write a client for KDE. I don't remember who, but there's obviously people wanting to do that for a while. I guess if it never happened it's because of the lack of docs for the protocol, yeah. Dani has been working on splitting the client code from the GNOME GUI for a while, and while it's not finished, it shouldn't be long before a test release is ready. I would recommend you to wait for Dani to release libtetrinet 0.1 and you start building KTetrinet (or whatever) around it, as you'll be able to forget about the protocol entirely. If you're not interested in using libtetrinet, I'm afraid the best documentation for the protocol is reading gtetrinet's code. There's no good docs out there that I know. Dani has promised (hi dani, feel the pressure?) to look at finishing up the first public version of libtetrinet in July. As soon as there's a release out, I'll package it for Debian, if that helps at all.
