I can create categories that contain blog entries, pages, articles, events, etc. You select a category and see a list of "content items" in that category. But how do I create a taxonomy of users?

Example: The categories are countries and when you select a country, you see a list of users who live in the country.

Another variation would be a taxonomy of blogs (not blog entries). Pick a category and get a list of blogs on my site that fit that category, with a link to /blog/xxx for each.

I did some more investigation and now see that the profile module has a simple way to group users based on profile values.

For example, this is the list of people who list "usability" as a topic of interest on drupal.org - http://drupal.org/profile/interest/usability - another example is where users select a value from a list - http://drupal.org/profile/country/canada - and you create that list within the profile admin module (I believe, but could be wrong).

So I can make do with that. But does it make sense that the Profile module has "mini taxonomy" functionality built into it - wouldn't it make more sense to use the taxonomy module to manage my lists/values and then just assign a taxonomy to a specific user profile field?

I have been looking for similar functionality from profile and was very excited by your post.

I tried it on my own system 4.6.3 and it just comes up with a page not found.

Using your URL here on Drupal site it seems like they have some custom format/template to accompolish this.

Has anyone found out anything more on this issue?
