[uf-discuss] Re: Profile-examples

[Chris Messina]

While I take your point that profiles vs xmdp profiles I confusing,
the notion of a profile can also apply to groups or teams... So
user-profiles would be too specific.

Perhaps we should do more research and see if this effort requires two
separate formats for groups and individuals.
