IPresenceSender.sendPresenceUpdate is implemented...at least in the 
current version of the ECF XMPP provider...via this class:
org.eclipse.ecf.internal.provider.xmpp.XMPPContainerPresenceHelper  line 237

The code you quote above seems to be from the collab example code...i.e. 
in this class:  
org.eclipse.ecf.internal.example.collab.presence.PresenceContainer. 

You should almost certainly *not* be using this provider of the presence 
API...but rather one from the org.eclipse.ecf.provider.xmpp bundle (the 
actual XMPP provider).   To get/use the real XMPP provider with remote 
services, you should be using/including these bundles (plus dependencies):

org.eclipse.ecf.provider.xmpp (xmpp provider)
org.eclipse.ecf.provider.remoteservices (remote services impl code 
reused by xmpp provider to do remote services)

The container factory name for the XMPP provider is:

XMPPS/Gmail:  ecf.xmpps.smack
XMPP:  ecf.xmpp.smack

So to create a container for your client that uses these full 
implementations it would be code like

IContainer container = containerFactory.createContainer("ecf.xmpps.smack");
...etc.
