I'm not sure if this is something that views can do, but I wanted to create a block on the user profile page that showed the "buddylist" for the user (ie. the user whose profile is being viewed -- rather than the user who is session-wise logged in).

It looks like this should be doable but I can't figure out quite how to do it. I've read the documentation and can create some simple views, like a page with all the recent posts from a user, or all the posts in a category etc., but I don't know how to create this particular "block with buddies of user whose profile is being viewed".

Is this possible?

Any help appreciated.

Thx.

At this time, no; views does lists of nodes (posts) but not (yet) users. It's something I have planned for the future, though.

I think a view by users and buddies is a great idea, too. Thanks for working on this.
