    Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get the author description to show up in 2.0?

    I've tried using the the_author_description() function as well as

    <?php
    if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
    $curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
    else :
    $curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
    endif;
    echo $curauth->user_description;
    ?>

    nither are working in 2.0

    Notice someone updated this information in Codex so maybe this helps:
    Author_Templates#About_Current_Author
