[Building Sakai] Profile2 v1.1 released

[Clay Fenlason]

Congrats, Steve.  Looks like it's really coming together.

Given that the user and "connection" information can be valuable
across a variety of functionality, were there plans to produce helpers
or by some other mechanism (perhaps including an OpenSocial container
in 2.x?) allowing other tools to access this data?  That could get
interesting.
