Restful authentication question

Rails
1

Does anyone have experience with the restful authentication plugin
git://github.com/technoweenie/restful-authentication.git
?

I’m trying to access the logged in user’s name outside of the users
controller. Any suggestions how to do this in a safe manner?

Many TIA,
Craig

I’ve got lots of experience with restful_auth – enough to know that it
depends on unmaintainable generated code and should not ever be used,

lot happier.
