Hi, i installed CWA and tried to get presence working on Sharepoint 2007. Have you had any luck? BTW, presence works fine with the fat client

This isn't really an OCS question per say but here you go -

Since the Sharepoint web part calls the Communicator automation interface (through and Office DLL), it will not display presence information unless Communicator is running on the user's desktop. CWA is running in an instance of the browser and there is no way for other applications to call into it.

There were some thoughts that OCS 2007 and CWA 2.0 might resolve this but I have not seen the CWA 2.0 bits yet so I would at this time say it is still an issue.
