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 like to think of 'architect' as a role rather than a person. As such a functional team fulfills the architect role either through having a dedicated architect (or architects) or by taking on the architectural responsibilites within the team.

That said, in my experience development teams do tend to be more dysfunctional around the architect role - possibly due to a misunderstanding of the responsibilities - and would have benefitted from the addition of an architect (or at least someone who understood the responsibilities).
