Cool, thanks.  Is the userManager object available from inside the velocity
layout templates though or is there a handy way to get a reference?

Cheers,

Iain

 From a portlet, just use the portlet api:

Map userInfo = (Map)request.getAttribute(PortletRequest.USER_INFO);

If you want to access them via the jetspeed user manager component:

User user = userManager.getUser(userName);
user.getUserAttributes();
