yes, for registration you need to add the class to the META-INF/components.txt
like explained somewhere: 
http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Component+Module#HComponentRegistration
(and in the Notifications Tutorial, too, I now see after careful reading ...)

some things to try if it still does not work:
 - check if there are no error messages in the log file on startup
 - maybe try "extend AbstractEventListener" instead of "implement EventListener"
   (that should *not* fix any problems, but maybe it gives an explicit error 
message instead of failing)
