1)Can you help create a block where details of the author profile (picture and other details as per profile)are shown for every author tagged through the author taxonomy?

2) Can you help create a block so that nodes tagged for a particular author can be listed in the user profile page?

Both these features will help in practical usage of the module since Author Taxonomy will effectively replace the author details on the website.

Any updates on this?

I have plenty of authors, each with his own profile page... I need this module, or anything similar to it, to link back to the profile page. Essentially, I need multiple authors for the articles.

Thanks!

Both of the features listed above can almost certainly be achieved by integrating this module with Views. You could then use Views blocks to output information about the user(s) and list other nodes authored by that user.

View integration is something we're actively working on. I'll mark this issue postponed until we make more progress.

I'm interested in this capability too.

I'm definitely interested in this capability too. Would anyone have a code snippet for doing this within a block (nevermind views for the moment, just need to get a list of nodes authored by a user).

I've got a working example if anyone is interested:

$result = db_query('SELECT author_taxonomy_term_link.uid, node.title, node.created, node.nid FROM author_taxonomy_term_link LEFT OUTER JOIN term_node ON author_taxonomy_term_link.tid = term_node.tid LEFT OUTER JOIN node ON term_node.nid = node.nid WHERE author_taxonomy_term_link.uid = %d ORDER BY node.created DESC', arg(1));
$items = array();
while ($taxauthnode = db_fetch_object($result)) {
  $items[] = l($taxauthnode->title, 'node/'. $taxauthnode->nid);
}
return theme('item_list', $items);
