I use this plugin on regular WordPress sites with no issues, but in WPMU paragraph tags and line breaks get stripped out of the description field.
Links, list items, bold/italic, headers, blockquotes all work as expected. But paragraphs and brs are stripped.
Any ideas on how to fix this would be much appreciated!
MU strips out stuff like that by default, very well known issue, and you'll get way more help over in the MU forums. :)
Thanks Andrea! Will do.

Hi Andrea, I was considering using this plugin on my multi-author multi-site urban planning blog until I saw this post. Then your husband created an awesome plugin for me that hides the biographies from my authors while still allowing the admins access. But I was thinking (uh oh) that maybe this issue could be solved with the weasel plugin that blocks the html stripping? I have been using the weasel plugin to allow me to format the biographies with html for use with an author page template and it works fine. Do you think this would solve the problem? Also, looks like the plugin hasn't been updated since March - any concern there?
Did you try it?

There you go suggesting that I do the obvious to answer my question! :-D Ok, I will and I'll report back here.

Andrea_r, it worked! The rich text biographies plugin combined with weasel's html bios plugin works on wpmu (or MS). Cool! (I must admit I was a little afraid to try it in case it messed up all my existing (x)html formatted bios.)
