Stuff that is not yet properly worked out in this module, because it needs thought (instead of code) include:
where to edit the nodes (your profile)
where to view the nodes (where to render the profile)
how to limit the amount of nodes a user can post as profile in a nice way.

i like profiles as nodes, but i think you limit the audience of your group when you say "We do not aim our code at the core of Drupal. Drupal profiles are fine as they are, for certain situations. ". for example, thats not my mission with this. i would remove language from the mission that limits your audience (unless you don't want such people participating)

Good point

My intention was to make clear that it is not our main iam. And not, as it seems now, that it is not allowed. Thanks
