This bug is related to the jabberd 1.4 JSM module (mod_groups) which sent TWO
rosters to the client. Exodus was not handling the second set of roster items
correctly. This does not sound like the bug your seeing. I'm not sure how
laptops going to sleep or anything would affect folks loosing their rosters.
This seems more like a server side issue.

This was a bug in Exodus. The most recent daily builds
(http://exodus.jabberstudio.org/daily/) should work much better for doing
searches with JUD, etc.
