I did receive the portlet, what I noticed is that you were looking up user
information based on an email request paramter.  Looking at it a second
time, I still do not see where you call the getRemoteUser method, but I will
look more closely.  Thanks!

Yes there is. Use the getRemoteUser() method of the PortletRequest object.

Spending more time with this and reading what you guys have said again,
there is no way to get the current user name.  I've looked at the
UserManager interface, but this is only useful if you have a username to
begin with.  So the only way to make the username available is to manually
set an attribute using the admin portlets?

If this is true, it seems like a draw-back in the implementation.  It
seems
like a common procedure to let users make their own accounts and have that
username availble to the applications running without administrator
interference.  I find it hard to believe that I am the first person to
require this functionality.  So I MUST be missing something, I've accepted
that I might not be able to stay within JSR 168, but it must be possible
(without changing the jetspeed code).
