Best practice for creating user profiles

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Looking for D6 advice, from what I can figure out, there are three options (probably more)

  1. User management-Profile (add fields)
  2. Create Content - Profile as content
  3. CCK

I want to create a site that has two main users: Volunteers and Organizations - so I've set up these two roles now I want to create two profile types, one for each role. How/Where should I create my extra fields so that they are available on registration, editable by the user and searchable.
