Well I made some progress. Using the IPersonAttributeDao interface, I
was able to feed a jsp page a uid value, and return all a list of user
attribute values.
A few things I'm unsure of that I need to toy with next:
1. Where did the IPersonAttributeDao interface get the list of user
attributes? It did not seem to match anything in our
PersonDirectory.xml file. Is it customizable?
2. How to feed that IPersonAttributeDao a session specific uid
automatically. What classes/methods are involved in making the jsp
aware of the user session it is running under?
I'll post the code I used when I can (server's eva undergoing some
updates).
thanks,
Jason

You may want to look at Webproxy -- it has built-in support for
passing along person attributes to remote services, and may do
exactly what you want without requiring custom code.
