That's true at the moment, although you could easily extend
SQLSession.setFieldValue/getFieldValue or
LDAPSession.getAttributeValue/getFieldValue to take into account new
types.
We'd be happy to add such code to Nuxeo if you have a patch.

Except directories currently only support INTEGER, VARCHAR &
TIMESTAMP sql types don't they? And then there is LDAP, etc..

The simplest way would be to use directories, yes, and register
your extended type with the UserManager.

Hi,
It looks like we will have a requirement to 'expand' on the
information stored about Users. Basically 'User Profile' type
information. It would contain such details as:
- Title, Mr, Mrs, Miss, Dr, etc..
- Quick Bio
- Image (avatar / uploaded picture)
- 'What I'm working on'
- Instant Messenger details
- Company Position
- Contact details, e.g. address, land-line phone number(s), mobile
phone number
Would this be of use to Nuxeo / the community as a plugin?
Is someone out there working on similar that we could collaborate
with?
Any opinions on the most appropriate way to store this information
- As an extension to the current User type using the Directory
system?
- As a UserProfile document type?
- As an EJB Entity?
- something else?
Thanks,
Sean
