profile

I'll try to work out a rough implementation proposal here.

user node-type

Its necessary, that for every user automatically exists a node in the system. A module has to care for creating/deleting this node, whenever users are added/deleted - so other modules can rely on that a node exists for each user, if the module is activated.

I've got a google Summer of Code project :) (what's soc?) Of course, Drupal is my mentoring organisation. My project is:

Node Profile Module and CCK

This drupal module will build user profile's as nodes, which opens the opportunity to use the Content Construction Kit (CCK) (view full project description).
