D6: **opinions wanted > buddylist w/activity, userrelationships w/activity, or friends w/notice, or ?? (social networking??

okay, so module development is continuing for buddylist2, for activity, for user relationships, for friends/notice feed etc...

just wondering if anybody on d6 right now has already been through the exercise of picking a "best solution" for typical networking type tools....

right now i'm using friend module with the related notice feed from the same dev.

what it does: shows friends in profile, lets me add/invite friends (they get offsite notification if not registered), view pending/etc, include buddies in user profile, etc - also lets me create friend groups (work, home, club etc) and organize friends in those groups and set permissions for each group related to viewing stuff (like facebook group privacy features) - another cool feature: adds a corkboard to each user profile so if we're friends, i can go to your profile and add a little comment (like a wall on most sites) and the owner of the profile can delete a comment without any additional modules (there are some that do this for comments/nodes, but not needed with friends) also some other stuff, but that's the main part

notice feed (companion from same dev) does cool stuff: adds facebook style updates like activity, but mini - a 'minifeed' (e.g. jim has posted a new blog, jim and suzy are now friends), notifies corkboard postings (jim posted on suzy's corkboard)

...but then i'm looking at buddylist2 and userrelationships - and they are equally cool things - and activity module can enhance them as well. and they have their own unique features (e.g. 'shortest path' in buddylist2, structure of an api for buddylist2, definitions and defaults for userrelationships (like tom on myspace, default friends, implied relationships etc)

any thoughts? ideas? feedback? opinions?

what i want: users connect, invite others, get notified on or off site (so doubles as 'invite' utility), see pending/approved etc, manage friends, view friends, see what friends are doing...i'm getting just about all of it right now with friends and notice feed - but there's some cool stuff that i can't do (like shortest path, implied or default relationships, etc)...
