Hi,

I'm interested in finding out more about the Microsoft Office Communicator IM client, and how it determines your presence (i.e if you are at your computer or away). Can anyone point me towards a tutorial that explains this, or details of the API?

My company recently mandated a switch from Skype to Office Communicator for IM / voice chat. While Skype was never the be all and end all of VOIP, it was at least usable.
