A stable user profile configuration for Drupal 6?

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

I am trying to build some typical social networking functionality for my site: configurable user profiles, home pages, where user submitted contents can be grouped and presented, possibly adding view blocks to the user profile pages, etc.

I am using Drupal 6 and I noticed that some of the most popular modules in this regards like nodeprofile, usernode and bio are not available for version 6. Since I don't want to wait until they are ported to v6 and become stable, my question is: what is the most stable module setup for configurable user profiles for Drupal 6 at the moment. Something like a best-practice approach will be very helpful.

I also found this topic: http://drupal.org/node/174765 - does that mean that the things listed above will be possible without usernode?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Nodeprofile became content profile. Bio is not going to be ported as content profile will take over its functionality. Usernode is no longer needed because views can work with users directly.

It's actually pretty simple in D6. If you want nodes for profiles, you use content profile.
