Good point. Another explanation of this is that instead of a shared roster where everyone on the server automatically sees everyone else in their "buddy list", it's just a regular Jabber server where you need to explicitly add a friend before you see their presence. Gadget is a server-side component which will provide services to future features in Presence Service and Sugar to let you search for a buddy who isn't on your mesh view (but is on the server), and then show their presence if they are found. I'll try to arrange a different server for use as a development server, with the shared roster still enabled as Gadget isn't usable yet.
