Only through Jabber transports. Gossip might support non-jabber protocols natively in the future but no one is working on that at this moment.

Does Gossip implement the full XMPP protocol specification?

Short answer, no, and it never will. The full XMPP specification is written for more than just chatting, in Gossip user features will drive the development, not the protocol. That means that a feature that doesn't make sense to a chat client won't be added just for the sake of supporting every part of the specification. Not however that we work towards being fully XMPP compliant.

Do Imendio make any money on Gossip?
