All,

I am thinking of adding some functionality around user profiles.  There are two 
main thrusts in the functionality.  The first is implementing some user account 
/ profile API with some sort of pluggable architecture such that the account 
profiles could be hooked up to an organizations exiting user store.  The second 
would be implementing a basic self contained instance for out of the box 
functionality.

The question I have for every one is what information should be in the user 
profile.  Right now all we have in the Profile API is:

- Address / User Id
- First Name
- Full Name
- Avatar Image URL


I was thinking that to start off we would have:

- User Id
- First Name
- Last Name
- External Avatar Image (link to an external image) or
- Internal Avatar Image (image uploaded by the user)
- Email Address (assuming we still want email integration)

Along the way, I would be adding a "My Account" or "My Profile" page.  Just 
looking for some design input.  Thanks.
