What is software architecture? What is the role of a software architect? How do you define software architecture? How do you share software architecture? How do you deliver software architecture?

I think this points to the larger folly of thinking that you can design a large, complex system up front. Any system that is complicated enough to require you to think about its design ahead of time is complicated enought that you'll probably get portions of the design wrong. Brooks had this idea in a rule that said, "Plan to throw one away, you will anyhow". I find that my third pass at a new problem is the first one that shows true insight. If you don't allow time for design to evolve, it will just fail instead.
