Since a few months I try to have a closer look at Drupal 7. After the release of Alpha 6 I decided to start a clients project based on Drupal 7. Two weeks ago we discovered a more or less strange problem.
In Drupal 7, as far as I knew, the profiles module will disappear or integrated in the new field api.
So I thought it would be a good idea to create the user fields as "fields" not as "profile fields". That worked perfect. It was possible to see the fields in the user edit...
